When I think of shenanigans, I think of mischief and fun! In fact, I think I could use some more of that these days! For our Strange Daze Indeed Shenanigans, I’m bringing you,
first of all, some delicious treats from Sweet Andy’s Cookies.


In 2009, Andy of Andy’s Cookies found himself in a position some of us also have, disenchanted with his work, which happened to be in the Financial Industry. He decided it just was not right for him. During the period of transition for Andy, his wife Lissa, and their family, Andy decided he wanted to give back to those who had helped them. Being a bit of a cookie monster, he began baking his homemade cookies and sharing them with friends and family.

Everyone was surprised that a) Andy himself had made them and b) that they were so delicious. Andy kept perfecting his cookies and one day, his friend Brian, a deli owner, put them in his store. They sold out and were a huge hit and the business took off!

This past year, they opened up a small retail bakery in Westhampton Beach, NY with 11 different flavors of Sweet Andy’s Cookies and other freshly baked items. These special “thank-you cookies” have a delicious homemade taste and gratitude and kindness baked into each one.

When I was going to review the cookies, Andy was wonderful to correspond with. He immediately sent me a huge box with six bags of really LARGE thick cookies – White Chocolate Macadamia Nut, Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, Sugar, Chocolate Peanut Butter and Triple Chocolate Chip. 
It was a cookie lover’s dream come true. And, not just because there were so many cookies and flavors, but because each one was soft and delicious. I am finicky about cookies. I don’t like many of them and won’t bother eating them if they are ordinary, but, these decidedly are not! 

They are like home-baked cookies in the best way, soft, but not too soft. They have a wonderful fresh taste and texture, seriously unlike any packaged cookies I’ve ever tasted. 




My favorite was the Triple Chip which has Semi-sweet chocolate, Peanut Butter and White Chocolate Chips but I also love the Classic Chocolate Chip. I also was a big fan of the White Chocolate Macadamia Nut. The Chocolate Peanut Butter is great for those who love both tastes together. I loved sharing these and hearing the oohs and ahhhs. 

They’ll stay fresh for about two weeks, but you can also keep them in the fridge or put them in the freezer. If you freeze them, you can just pop them in the microwave for about 15 seconds or let them sit at room temperature.
There are other flavors too: Lemon, Pumpkin, Oatmeal Raisin, Mint Chip and more.  The cookies are really affordable for such high quality and make great gifts.

Andy has generously offered one of my readers, a huge gift box of their own with six bags of cookies – and you can choose your flavors!

Sweet Shenanigans!



To add to the fun, the winner will also receive a $10 gift card to Chili’s (if they can find room after eating all those cookies!)

    I love how you said “at least one flavor.” It’s like you know how hard it can be to choose when they all sound so scrumptious! I would certainly choose the sugar cookie to try if I had the option, but the oatmeal raisin and pumpkin sound might good, too. 😀

    Normally, I’m pretty basic in my cookie choices (choc chip, oatmeal raisin & some cinnamon/snicker doodle type choices) keeping all that in mind I’d try the pumpkin cookies- I love finding new goodies in pumpkin, you can normally only find them in late fall/early winter in the stores.

    I love, love, love cookies. I make and eat them all the time. I would love the chocolate especially, because it’s so messy to cook with chocolate; whenever I can eat something chocolate that someone else made, I’m very happy. I mean it — it can make my day!
