Are you ready to meditate with Cori?
Make sure that you're laying down in your bed and everything is just right in your room.
It's time to relax and let go of your busy day.
Time to listen to a story,
Let your body get comfortable and soft and relaxed.
Heidi,
Cherry and Vea were very excited.
They were having a bake-off,
Like a baking party.
They got some friends over.
They were baking cookies with Lily and her brother Jackson,
Who they called Jackie.
Gigi and Julianne,
Who were sisters,
Were also there.
Gigi was five and Julianne was seven.
Each one of the kids had got a different recipe that they wanted to make for the cookies and the cats were there to help and support.
Cherry,
As usual,
Had a lot to say about cookies.
Do you know?
Do you know that cookies say so much about someone?
I mean,
They do.
They really do.
They say so much about your personality.
It's almost as if,
If people were cookies,
They would be different flavours,
Wouldn't they?
And,
You know,
Your flavour says,
Like,
Something about you.
For example,
Gigi,
What flavour cookies are you wanting to make today?
Gigi said that she wanted to make rainbow sprinkle white chocolate chip cookies.
Cherry said,
Ah,
You see?
You see,
Gigi,
That says so much about you.
Sprinkles,
You must be a princess girl or a unicorn girl.
You're a bit,
I bet,
I bet,
I bet,
I bet this.
I bet that you are a lot like Faye,
That you like to do girly things and play princesses and do princessy things and want to be married by a prince.
Or,
Like,
You would like to dance and sing and all that fun stuff.
Yeah,
So I bet you any money.
Like this,
For example,
Jackson,
Jackie,
Jackie,
My boy,
What would you like to do?
Or what kind of cookies do you want to make for our cookie bakey offy thing?
Because tell me,
Tell me,
And I'll be like a psychic.
But instead of reading your palm and reading your cookie,
Tell me what cookie you want to make.
Jackie said that he was going to make snickerdoodles.
Ah,
Said Cherry,
I knew it.
I knew you were a snickerdoodle kind of boy.
I knew it.
I could just tell you're a little bit spicy,
A little bit warm in the middle.
I bet you're a really nice,
Sweet little boy,
Aren't you?
And you know what?
I bet you're a bit crunchy on the outside.
Which means you're probably a lot like me personality wise.
But then maybe you're not.
Maybe you're a little bit shy or a little bit timid or a little bit sweet.
Like the inside of a snickerdoodle.
But they are covered in sugar,
Aren't they?
And cinnamon.
And they're so delicious.
Like you,
Jackie,
You're delicious.
So yeah,
Yeah,
I can totally see you being a snickerdoodle.
Okay,
Julianne,
Julianne,
Tell me,
Tell me what your cookie is.
I'm getting so good.
I'm getting so good at this.
Heidi,
Did you know that I could tell like your fortune?
Or like read your personality with your cookie?
Heidi said.
Um,
Well,
It doesn't surprise me,
Cherry.
Cherry said.
Yeah,
I know.
You see,
So this is another one of my talents that I didn't even realize I had.
Because I should charge people.
I should say,
Come see your psychic cat.
She will tell you exactly who you are.
Just by knowing what flavor,
Flavor,
Flavor,
Flavor cookie you would make.
She knows exactly who you are.
She knows exactly what you are.
She knows exactly your personality.
Just by the chunks in your cookies.
All right.
All right,
Julianne,
Tell me what cookie you would be.
Julianne said that she wanted to make lemon drop cookies.
Oh,
So sophisticated,
Said Cherry.
Julianne,
I mean,
I know I know you anyway,
Because you're my friend.
But pretend I don't.
Julianne,
Julianne,
You're so smart and sophisticated.
You're a very deep kind of personality.
You know,
You're not just surface.
You go layers deep,
Like deep,
Deep,
Like the ocean kind of deep.
You can be very sensitive and also very endearing and very caring and loving.
But your sensitivity can get you into trouble sometimes.
Because you can be so sensitive that you take things a little bit too harshly.
Or a little bit too seriously.
But let me tell you,
You are so much of a lemon drop cookie.
You're so beautiful,
Lemon drop cookie.
Yes,
Perfect.
Perfect for you.
Absolutely perfect.
All right.
Finally,
Finally,
Lily,
Lily,
Tell me what flavor cookie you would be.
What are you making?
Lily said that she was making chocolate chip.
Oh,
That's so you,
Chocolate chip.
Who doesn't love chocolate chip?
Who doesn't love Lily?
She's so nice.
And she's funny,
So funny.
Like,
You know,
Like when you have a chocolate chip cookie,
You have a bite and it's normal.
And then you have a bite and it's got chocolate in it.
Like a really big chocolate chunk.
If the person that's made the chocolate chip cookies have put decent sized chocolate chunks in there,
Then it's like a big explosion of fun and flavors and textures in your mouth.
And you're like,
Oh,
That's Lily.
That's Lily.
She's so funny.
She's like a chocolate chip.
But then she has this other side of it that's like the plain part of the cookie that's just more like,
You know,
Everyday Lily.
You know,
Just like normal Lily.
You know what flavor I would be?
Lily,
Guess what flavor?
Guess,
Guess.
Gigi,
Julianne,
Jackie.
Come on,
Lily.
Everyone sit in front of me before we start baking.
Look at me.
Look at me.
Look at me.
Everyone look at me right now.
Guess what flavor do you think I'm going to make?
Tell me.
Tell me what flavor you think I'm going to make.
Everyone had different guesses.
They were all wrong.
None of them quite got it.
Then Cherry said that she was going to make a robust chocolate coffee cookie.
Heidi said,
Oh yes,
That's totally you.
Faye said,
Me definitely thinks your coffee flavor.
Right,
Said Cherry.
I'm so intense.
I'm like caffeine.
That's me.
Yeah,
I can,
I'm just like buzz,
Wide awake.
Keep you going.
Keep you entertained.
You don't get any kind of lulls when you have me around because,
You know,
It's just go,
Go,
Go.
Entertain,
Entertain,
Entertain.
Because I'm so funny.
I'm so interesting.
So funny.
So cute.
So like energizing,
Like coffee.
And then the robust dark chocolate is very me because I can be a little bit direct and a little bit dry and a little bit like,
Oh,
Bitter sometimes.
But so good.
If the combination is right,
So good.
You know,
You know,
I've been thinking about it.
I know exactly what Faye would be.
Faye,
If you were a cookie,
If you were going to bake a cookie today,
I know we're supposed to be just helping the kids bake cookies.
But if you were going to bake a cookie today,
I know exactly what you would be,
Faye said.
Wait a minute.
Let me think about this.
Oh,
I know.
I know already.
Cherry said,
Coconut macaron.
Faye said,
Yes.
Cherry said,
I know.
I know.
It's because I'm a psychic cookie reader.
I know exactly,
Exactly what you are.
You are definitely the white,
Delicate flakes of coconut.
And then that very,
You know,
Definite coconut flavor.
It's delicate,
But it's there.
You can always taste it whenever you taste it in something else.
It's delicioso.
And it's just you.
It's so you.
Yes,
Definitely.
Yes,
You.
Heidi.
Heidi,
Now,
Think about this,
Heidi.
Tell me.
Tell me what you would be if you were a person that was a cookie,
That was a cat,
That wasn't a cat,
That was a cookie,
That wasn't a person,
That was a cookie.
That's right.
Yeah.
If you were a cookie,
What flavor cookie do you think you would be?
Because I know.
I know.
Because I'm a psychic cookie reader.
And I know exactly what you would be.
Lily guessed and said that she thought Heidi would be vanilla.
A vanilla,
Just a plain sugar vanilla cookie.
Heidi said,
That is a lot like me,
But no,
Lily.
No,
That would not be the cookie I made.
Jackie said that she would be a strawberry flavor cookie.
Heidi said,
No.
Gigi thought that Heidi would be just a almond flavored cookie.
No,
No.
Julianne said almond and marzipan.
Heidi said,
No,
No,
That's not me.
Cherry said,
I know,
I know.
I just know it.
I can just feel it.
I know it.
Heidi said,
I would be a frosted Christmas cookie.
Cherry said,
Oh,
Oh,
Oh,
No,
That wasn't my guess at all.
I thought I had you down for a chocolate bourbon or something like that.
A chocolate bourbon?
No,
A chocolate bourbon.
No,
What is it?
What's them chocolate,
Chocolatey biscuits that we had that time in England?
And they were bourbonies?
Were they bourbons or were they bourbons?
I can't remember.
Anyway,
I had you down for one of those.
It's like a chocolate sandwich with cream in the middle.
And it's kind of like,
You think it's going to be boring because they're like,
Oh,
Wants a bourbon.
But then,
You know,
You bite it or you dip it in your tea.
It's like,
This is actually really nice.
But if you had a lineup of cookies and biscuits in front of you,
You wouldn't really go for the chocolate bourbon because it's like,
Oh,
Chocolate bourbon.
It's a bit boring.
Not saying that you're boring or anything,
Heidi,
Because you're not boring.
It's just that,
You know,
You're in your heads in your books all the time.
And everybody just thinks,
Oh,
You're so like book reader.
They don't really see that cream inside.
You know,
That's why I was thinking you'd be like a cookie sandwich or something because you've got that layer of cream inside that no one really notices until they really get to know you.
But that's why I thought I didn't really think of a Christmas-like iced cookie.
Would you be a particular picture,
Said Cherry.
Heidi said,
Yes,
I'd be a Santa Claus.
Oh,
This is so not you.
I don't know why I'm not seeing it at all.
I'm not seeing it,
Heidi.
I'm not seeing it at all.
I don't really feel like you're Santa Claus when I think about Heidi.
I think you're more like a school teacher or maybe like a scientist or someone that invents things,
But definitely not Father Christmas.
Why do you think you would be a Father Christmas cookie?
Heidi said,
I don't know.
I just don't know.
I just think I would be,
Though.
Well,
There you go,
Said Cherry.
People,
Cats,
Dogs,
Fishes,
They surprise you all the time.
You just don't know,
Do you?
You think you know someone and then you don't.
I'm a bit worried about my psychic abilities now because I really did not have you down for a Santa Claus iced chocolate,
Iced,
Iced cookie at all,
At all,
At all.
I really didn't.
But,
You know,
I can't win everything,
Can I?
I know I'm really good at most things all the time.
I can't be good at everything all the time,
Can I,
Heidi?
Heidi said,
Well,
You know,
It would be impossible for someone to be good at everything,
Every single time,
All the time,
Right?
That doesn't seem practical.
Cherry said,
I know,
Exactly.
But if there was a cat that was perfect,
It would definitely,
It would definitely have a picture of Cherry underneath it.
Because I am quite perfect.
I think I'm perfect.
Even my imperfections are perfect because I'm so good.
I am so good.
And,
You know,
If I don't think I'm good,
Then who else is going to?
That's what I think.
I think we should blow our own horns and tickle our own bellies and just know that we're awesome all the time.
Because,
You know what?
If I'm my own biggest fan,
Then I don't have to worry about whether anybody else likes me.
I can just know it myself and I can just like myself and I can be myself and I can be my awesome self,
My awesome psychic cookie reading self.
I'm definitely,
Definitely going to get some kind of shawl because I think most people that are psychics,
They're always like,
You know,
When you see them pictures of palm readers or like tarot card readers and things like that,
And you see them and you're like,
They look like some kind of like gypsy or something,
You know,
Very,
Very like fortune tellery.
I want to look like that and I'm going to get a shawl and I'm going to wear a fancy hat and I'm going to have like a lemonade stand outside and I'm going to charge 10 cents every time somebody comes up to me and says,
What cookie would I be?
I'm going to say,
Right,
Cherry,
The psychic cookie reader,
10 cents,
Please.
Because you have to make sure that they pay you first,
Otherwise they might not pay you and then you might be doing all your work and you don't get paid.
That's not cool.
So yeah,
10 cents,
Please.
And then I would read them and tell them exactly what flavor they would be.
I have a feeling that there'd be a lot,
A lot,
A lot of people that are very similar flavors because,
You know,
There's only so many kinds of people in there.
There's so many kinds of cats,
So many kinds of dogs.
You mean,
I know there's billions and billions and billions of people on the planet,
But there's only so many kind,
Maybe like five kinds of people.
That's why we all see each other and we go,
Oh,
You're just like me.
Or,
Oh,
I don't like you.
And you don't like them because they're just like you,
But you don't realize it's because they're just like you because there's only like five types of people.
Heidi said,
There's actually 12 types of people because there's 12 types of Zodiac.
That means there's 12 types of people.
Oh,
Said Cherry.
Awesome,
What do you think,
Kate?
Yeah,
So that's what I mean.
There's probably only 12 types of cookies.
Anyway,
Yeah,
That's what I'm gonna do.
All right,
Now,
Let's get baking these cookies.
Let's get on it.
Let's get the nicest,
Nicest,
Nicest,
Nicest cookies that we've ever,
Ever tasted.
Let's do it,
Kids,
Let's do it.
The kids and the cats baked all afternoon.
They listened to music.
They had dance parties around the kitchen.
They got covered in flour and sugar and butter and all the other ingredients.
They all baked their cookies and then they all shared the cookies at the end.
So each one of them got to taste each other's flavors.
They all agreed that Cherry was actually very good at psychically reading people's cookies.
Maybe in the future,
When she grows up,
That would be her job.
We just never know.
Eventually,
The kids went home.
The cats settled down,
Got comfy on their cat bed and ended up falling fast asleep,
Dreaming about cookies.
The end.
