Thanks, Pepperidge Farm! Thanks to these cookies and a lot of free time on my hands, I learned about Michigan’s Mackinac Island. Did you know the federal land on the island was designated as the second national park in the U.S., behind Yellowstone National Park? You didn’t? Well, now you know. (Spotted by Robbie at Target.)

Also, if you want to send in photos and are wondering if we’ve already covered something, don’t worry about it. Let us worry about it.
Thanks for that fact Marvo
If I didn’t grow up a short ferry ride from Mackinac (the only way to visit the island) I wouldn’t know that it’s pronounced Mac-kin-naw. Which is kind of too bad, Mac-in-ak has a nicer ring to it.
My family is from this island! I got so excited when I saw these in target that I had to get them. I’ve spent every summer on this island, and it’s my favorite place in the world, hands down.
