Good News: A Teacher’s Helicopter Exit, a Young Baker, and Wearing an Old Hooters Uniform
Here are a few more Good News stories making the rounds . . .
1. An elementary teacher in Montana just retired after 31 years, and she celebrated by leaving her last day . . . in a HELICOPTER. It’s unclear why she chose a helicopter, she just said it’s something she always said she’d do. A bunch of students and teachers were there when she boarded the helicopter to send her off.
2. Alabama has an official state cookie. It’s called the “Yellowhammer Cookie,” and it was created by Mary Claire Cook, a fourth grade student from Montgomery. There was a contest to determine a state cookie . . . and Mary won. The Yellowhammer features two oatmeal cookies with peanut butter filling between.
Alabama Governor Kay Ivey just signed it into law earlier this month.
3. A mother-of-three went viral on TikTok after finding her old Hooters uniform from 30 years ago in her attic . . . and putting it back on. She said, “I couldn’t bring myself to throw it out.” She last wore it as a 19-year-old, in 1993.
(Here’s another fun video, where she shows her husband.)
