It's National Cookie Day
On Thursday, 6 March 2025
In The Garden of the Floating Words
from 13:00 to 13:30
All geocachers are welcome to this small garden space to discuss our hobby (and enjoy some cookies, if you would like).
6 March is national cookie day for a particular cookie - the day this cookie was created by the company on 6 March 1912 in New York City.
These cookies were first introduced into Britain by a large supermarket chain and they were only supermarket chain in the UK to stock them - until May 2008, when they were launched across the whole UK.
This cookie consists of two chocolate discs with a sweet, creamy fondant between them. Come and enjoy a cookie (or two) with me in The Garden of the Floating Words.
The Garden of the Floating Words is a small square between two roads. It is more of a square than a garden as it is paving stones with planters in the middle and a few individual wooden seats scattered around the planters.
The Garden of the Floating Words is a neon poem created by Elisa Artesero, that appears to be floating in the foliage of the garden planter. During the daytime, the words are seen on tall rectangular clear acrylic stands, which echo the tall glass buildings surrounding this garden space. At nighttime, the words alone are then the main feature.
The work was first commissioned by the Canary Wharf Group for the Winter Lights Festival 2017.This artwork is now permanently at 70 St Mary Axe.
