Why did i forget to close the cookie jar? Answered

Your brain is secretly plotting against you and your cookie-eating ways.

its not that you forgot its that you don't care enough to worry about something like putting lid back on cookie jar you were not interested in jar just the cookies

you could pop it back into the oven, i tink.. its stale cause the water vapour has made it soft? so if u dehydrate it, it might go back to its original state, tho not as good? Don't hold me to this tho, I'm just theorising, because when bread goes hard and stale, my mom told me to steam it, so that it'll get back its moisture and be nice and soft. So, yeah.

who knows or cares lol

Because subconsciously you wanted new different cookies, so your brain allowed you to destroy the good ones remaining. It's true.

because in reality, thieves NEVER return to the scene of the crime!!! ;)

Or maybe i did close the jar... and there is a cookie starved ghost in my pantry :o WEEP!

Because deep down, you wanted to be caught- to draw attention from your other failures in life.

Because you are too busy enjoying your cookies and forget about everything...?
