Cookies Amazing Campingtrip – sort of…

Hey everybody! Me have been on a fun campingtrip last week. Well… sort of. Me went to the Vakantiebeurs here in The Netherlands. Translated you can say the Holiday Fair. It a huge fair that lasts almost a week, where you can get a taste of different cool vacation spots. It really possible to travel the whole world in one day! You will be tired at the end of it, but you have seen it all. It is a great way to experience all kinds of cool things and get a taste of the beautiful world we live in. So… will you come with me on me pretend campingtrip?

In a Galaxy not so far away – apparently

In a Galaxy far, far away, the world needed to be saved from an evil emperor who wanted to destroy ALL the cookies in the Universe. There was only one googly-eyed hero who could do that. So this fuzzy and blue hero packed his bag full of cookies, jumped on the back of his best friend and together – armed with a photocamera – they went to seek out Yoda so they could learn how to defeat Darth Vader and save ALL the Cookies in the Galaxy… Swoosh… swoosh… heehee.

It’s poisonous!

Me really love Berry her job, because she takes me everywhere! Even to an exhibition about… poison. Or better yet: VENOM. Yes. The exhibition in Dutch is called GIF! and can be seen at Naturalis in Leiden, the Netherlands. The exhibition was dedicated to the famous scientist (well he is very famous in the Netherlands) dr. Freek Vonk. He travels all around the world to look for animals and other natural phenomena’s and tells kids about them in a television show. He even got bitten by a shark! But he survived and has a huge scar to prove it all happened. Well... Berry took me and her youngest nephew on a traintrip to Leiden to meet Freek and to meet all these creepy crawlers and such who are indeed poisonous!

Fun in Oberhausen with Lego’s and SeaLife

It already a while ago, but me had so much fun me needed to do a blog about it anyway. On March 1st Berry took her brother, his wife and kids with her to Oberhausen in Germany. You see, she had a press thingy for her blog and this time she could share it with everybody. So after rubbing the sleep out of me googly eyes – we had to get up real early – we took a road trip to Germany. It promised to be a very fun day!

As you may know me bestie Berry is a writer slash blogger slash reporter (hey, me learned all me reporting skills from her, cuz she also a writing coach). For her blog she gets invited to all kinds of exciting events. So… at the first day of Spring – March 21 – she took me to Keukenhof in Lisse for the pre-opening of the well… new season of the Keukenhof. And it was soooo cool! Me saw so many flowers and even Nijntje lives there! Me was also very happy me no did had to walk...

Having a Day of Vacation at the Vacation Expo

Since me bestie Berry is a freelance text writer and blogger, she has visited many great expo’s, openings, zoos and museums. For the third year in a row now she took me to ‘de Vakantiebeurs’, or Vacation Expo in Dutch. This expo is huge in the Netherlands and is visited by many people, also from abroad. It starts on Tuesday with a day for press and professionals and ends on Sunday. So it takes up almost a week! The purpose of the expo is that travel bureaus promote their accommodations and destinations so you can find the vacation of your dreams. It awesome. You can travel the whole world… in just one day!

Have me told about…Munch|van Gogh?

You know me love art right? Me love to draw and color in me coloring books. But me also love to visit a museum or two. With me friend Berry me have been to the Van Gogh Museum three times last year. But the last time, me loved it the best. That was already back in September (told ya me is a bit behind on me blogging). So we went to the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam for this special exhibit of art made by Vincent van Gogh and Edvard Munch!

Have me told about… Afrika Museum?

Have you seen me new profile picture on me Facebook page? Me is also put it here so no worries if you missed it (do not be shy and gimme a follow on either Facebook or Instagram so you get the good stuff first). Me is sitting here in front of all kinds of gorgeous, old and traditional instruments. It was quite the shot to take, me sat on the railing of the balcony, because the instruments were hanging from the ceiling. Where it was, you ask? Well, it was at the Afrika Museum in Berg en Dal, the Netherlands. Berry went there for her blog and me – of course – tagged along! And me is so glad me did. So… Have me told about Afrika Museum?

Cookie loves art

Me love Art! Me even loves to paint a chocolat chip cookie once in a while. But me also loves to go to a museum and ponder away while looking at statues and paintings. Last week me went to the Van Gogh Museum and to the Statuepark Anningahof because Berry needed to go there for her work. Me tagged along happily ofcourse. Because me sure do Love me some art! Especially when it is this adorable as Grazzly, the grass bear. (photos by: Berry de Nijs)

Cute encounters

Me have been so busy lately. Berry took me to all this fun things for her work, but also for some pleasure. Me had some cute encounters because of that too. First with the baby polar bears in Ouwehand Dierenpark in Rhenen. That was the Monday before Earth Hour. And then Berry took me to Dolfinarium in Harderwijk to go on egg hunting. Well… no chicken eggs but ray and shark eggs. It was for a good cause. And much fun. The best thing was when me went under water to meet with the walruses. They are so cute and cuddly. And look, Raisa came over to cuddle me too! Me is having a blast with all this field trips. Me sure hope me go on a new field trip again soon!

Travelling Around in January

O boy O boy the last few weeks have been so bizzy! And because Berry was keeping the laptop to herself for work, me was patiently waiting for her to move out of the way and tell you something about it. Well, if you have been paying attention to the Cookie Report Facebook page you probably saw some awesome things me have been doing lately. Let’s make a monthly weblog report to round up last month.

Amazing Giants of the Ice Age

O boy O boy! When Berry told me, me could come with her to Amsterdam Expo me was really excited. Me was going to learn more about the Ice Age, she told me. Me like the Ice Age, the animals were fuzzy (not blue) and huge. Me especially love the woolly mammoth, a large, elephant like animal with huge tusks and long hair. After me visit at GaiaZOO where me had seen Snuffies family, me was glad to learn more about them. So we travelled to see Giants of the Ice Age.

1001 Inventions and 1 great Elephant clock

Hello everybody. Here is me again. Me had a really great Christmas. You did see all the updates on me Facebook right? If you don’t, you should follow me there too. A well, me had great Christmas… but before that me promised on Facebook again to talk about some special things me had seen with me friend Berry. For her job she sometimes needs to travel to this cool locations. Yeah yeah. There see can see all kinds of stuff and later on, she writes about it on her Dutch blog. Me on the other hand can write about it here. So to kick off again, me will talk about the traveling exhibition called 1001 Inventions, the Golden Age of Muslim Civilization (wow tough word).

Art made out of Lego

Me was at a very special exposition yesterday. Me thought everything was made out of candy first, but then me looked closely and me could not believe me googly eyes! Everything was made out of LEGO! You know the colorful bricks little monsters like me love to play with. All the art was made by a man named Nathan Sawaya. He was there too with the opening of the exposition. He showed everything around, telling stories about all the pieces he made by himself!

MyBeach: keeping the Dutch beaches clean

You know me is a nice and well behaved monster. Although me have occasionally little hunger outbursts when me want a cookie, me is very civilized. My grandma taught me to always clean up after myself. Never let cookie wrappers unattended but throw them in trashcan. Me knows me makes Oscar very happy with old cookie wrappers too. But you don’t have to have a grouchy friend to clean up and throw away your trash.

Exclusive: Cookie saves a little Chimp

Wel... sort of.
Cookie loves animals. Most animals are so cute and cuddly. Me can not imagine that there are people who want to hurt animals on purpose. Poaching is very wrong. Cookie knew that all along. But after me went with Berry to see and listen to Jane Goodall me saw what poachers do to animals. Luckily there are a lot of people who help animals. Jane Goodall helps the chimpanzees, so Berry bought this little monkey to keep me company. Me hope we saved a chimp somewhere with our donation.

Proud

So, here is my new Cookie Report. Me have been a bit busy at Berries work. You no want to know how much me had to do! Call customers, write articles, judge the lay-out! Me was pooped!

And me had to look good too... Well, actually, Berry had to look good. Me always look spectaculair in me blue fur. But sometimes me like to play dressup, or just crawl away in Berries suit! Nice isn't it.

Cookie @ Work

Everyday, me go with Berry to her job. She is the chief editor of a professional magazine. She writes articles, helps with the website, makes sure everything is in its place when published.

It is fun. Me sits on the ground most of times, reading magazines and stuff. Sometimes me eat cookies or crackers. And when me is a good monster... me can sit in her chair and pretend to be the chief editor.

Computer Freak

Me love to play with the computer.

Sometimes me just surfs over the Internet. Me reads stories about Sesame Street, or me visits the websites of Berries dad or brother.
