The Stranger

Love is fleeting. You’ll have 15 sexual partners in your lifetime, according to the Centers for Disease Control. Chances are you’ll get married, and odds are you’ll end up divorced. But there’s one love that will never leave you: your mouth. Sure, it’s got its downsides—spreading rabies and off-key singing—but it also smooches, eats, and makes you sound smart sometimes. Today, give it some love in the form of a quarter-inch-thick brown-sugar shortbread cookie from Macrina Bakery—a treat bigger than an ox’s heart and so buttery delicious you’ll tongue a mirror in gratitude.
