Milk and Cookie Stories presents…
A Statement of Intent
Something to replace out-of-date event notices on our Home page…
Don’t worry, we’ve got something in the oven. But since it’s a little special, we’re going to take the time to announce it with a little fanfare once we have the details all worked out. If you were at Milk and Cookies VII – Disaster Stories, you’ll have had a taste of what’s in store. It will be Tuesday June 8th, it will be Exchange Dublin, and it will be wonderful.
In the meantime we’d just like to take the opportunity to thank everyone who threw caution to the wind and signed up to tell a story, everyone who brought cookies to share – especially the person who brought the world’s greatest ever chocolate and cream cheese cake (I’m guessing here, I’m no baker); it was a little hot and squidgy to serve at the time and about 5 minutes too late for our BAKE-OFF! but thre would be no justice in this world if your contribution went unnoticed. And last but oppositely of least, everyone who turned up for the stories. Milk & Cookies ♥’s you. Never leave us.
We also also want to give a huge thank you to our featured acts – Mr. Colm Keegan, who performs regularly at the seriously excellent Nighthawks – a mix of music, poetry, comedy, anything and everything which not uncoincidentally shall next be on Saturday May 29th in the Cobalt Café; for details on how to get tickets go check their Facebook page, ’cause they go fast. This month’s Nighthawks promises to be more extraordinarily sound than usual; featuring, as it does, not just Colm Keegan but also our second featured storyteller from Milk & Cookies VII – Kalle Ryan. Kalle also runs The Brown Bread Mixtape in The Stag’s Head every month – more comedy, music, poetry, national anthems and important things – the next one is Wednesday May 26th from 8.30pm, and it’s all kinds of free in; find their Facebook, or their MySpace, if you’re that way inclined.
You can also have a click round the website, where we have podcasts of previous and excellent stories told at Milk & Cookie Stories, recipies from previous winner of our BAKE-OFF! (so you know they’re good) and other little trails of biscuits leading you deeper inside our (completely non-sinister) gingerbread house.
So hey, between that, and the Fun Elsewhere section (right here on this very site!), you’ve got a busy couple of weeks coming up. Do come back and check here though, because we will announce Milk & Cookies VIII (or maybe just Milk & Cookies 8, or if I get my way, Milk & Cookies Gaiden) really soon, and you’re not going to want to miss that.
Cookie out.
