[tulips]

WTF?!??!

[CloudBee]

I'm supposed to be taking my kid to the playground. But I just gave him a bowl of chocolate ice cream so I can watch this post a little longer before we head out. LOL.

But seriously, who'd like a dozen lactation bars? Anyone?

Seriously.
I'm a little iffy on eating the ones I have now. (Are they safe, cleanliness-wise) I don't know if that's a bit overboard, but it's just my first gut reaction.

I can say that I have eaten many of them and have not died (though I'm not sure if they have actually helped with milk production lol).

But yeah, I am so WTF right now in general.

[gerberdaisy]

Holy Shit...also, $1MM/year in sales? That doesn't seem right.

[genet313]

Not surprising.  I always thought her business-related stats were unsupported and unlikely, but, hey, she's trying to promote a business and of course wants to look successful to encourage other buyers.  So I gave that a pass.  But this is a whole other level of WTF.

ETA: And, yes, I've purchased the cookies at least twice that I can reacall and never had any issues with delivery timing, quality, etc.  So I'll acknowledge at least some level of business-related legitimacy.

She may be in Denver guys seeing her BFF!

Then she picked the right place to be. Anyone who is FB friends want to let me know if she posts pics of her in Denver? Because I will hunt her down and confront her in person.

Oh wow

Omg. I've been questioning her legitimacy for years, but this is insane.

Even the thing about her ex texting her about his engagement sounded super hinky to me. She's always seemed a bit "off".

I mean, $80k/month? From cookies? A one woman operation?

I don't even know what to say I'm so shocked.

ME. I figure someone is bound to call her out on her FB page at some point.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

Have we reached the points where gifs are appropriate? Ok good.

I do kind of think the cookie business is real. I mean it has 14,000 followers on FB and TV segments and people here have ordered & eaten them, right??

But as to the rest of it? If this is truly what her past is in regards to the trolling using fake dead children, it's absolutely beyond unforgiveable.

I don't go here, but I've been wanting to make a point about the lactation bars for a while. According to AZ cottage food laws, food cooked in home kitchens is only supposed to be sold in the state of AZ. She shouldn't be shipping elsewhere.

[nextbigthing]

Holy shit!!!!

Who wants to call the Tucson news station?

I'm walking into a 2 hour meeting, gah!!

[cricketwife]

Omg. I'm just floored.

@stilljustash, do you think it would be better not to tag Honeyspider? I hate for her to come in here on the day she's giving birth. I fel like everything should be roses and unicorns for her today. Or maybe I'm too hormonal myself to be making suggestions....whatever seems right to you.

Agreed.

I do think she has a profitable business. I think she has 30K followers on FB. And I know people who have successful home businesses. I never really believed all the figures, but whatever. 

The rest is just absolutely disgusting. I don't know how a person does this at all.SaveSave

[waterchurch]

I'm shocked. Wow.

[abs]

I'm on the elliptical oand this is me right now:

*refresh*. *refresh*. x one million.

I always wondered how she made so much money off cookies but I haven't been posting long enough to really wonder about her.

WTF. Why? I need her to come explain.

I would love to see this page right now.

Okay, for those of us trying to get up to speed, can someone post a summary?

[CloudBee]

I actually think I'm going to pull out the water hose and sit on the porch rather than go to the playground.

[krystee]

What is the full list of evidence? I feel like the picture could easily be her, but I'm not 100% positive so I don't want to accuse someone of something SO terrible if there is not more. That said, I saw on older posts that there were Irvine and OC GTGs the crazy poster went to, and CM is from California though she doesn't currently live there. So I think it's likely.

I would just be devastated if someone thought I had done something like this, to the point that they were threatening to send info to TV stations, and it wasn't me, so I want to proceed cautiously. That said, making up a dead child is one of the sickest things to do, so if it IS her, I will wholeheartedly join the pitch forking.

And I was worried about being bored on ML ......

[CheeringCharm]

This is crazy. How was the connection made? I think her business must make bank because she really is on vacation all the time and she makes the expense seem like no big deal (like, oh my son doesn't want to go to Disney, no biggie we'll just go somewhere else).

eclaires how the hell have you been sitting on this for all this time?!!!

I just put it together this summer!  I swear!

I have a friend who looked into teachkinder back in the day on the nest (I don't want to give specifics but will give them via PM if anyone wants them), and has occasionally looked into her again based on what she found.  We would randomly talk about it.  Back when the cookie business started, she mentioned it to me and I was like, weird.  We would randomly discuss her and general internet catfishing or walk down nest memory lane.  Then this summer, she mentioned something about her again, and right after that, a GBCN friend was like "between LLR and the home cookie business making $80k a month, I'm wondering what I've done with my life" or something like that.  And I was like, "home cookie business $80k wut?" (but not thinking it was teachkinder related, just being a nosy asshole).  So I searched for the ask me anything she mentioned, and was like... wait a minute when I read it.  Then I frantically texted my friend to ask if moo n cookies was the name of the lactation cookie business teachkinder had now.  When she confirmed, I was like, HOLY SHIT.  Then we discussed for awhile whether anything she posted about her business was legit, and wondered where she was getting the money she was clearly spending on trips and pro photogs.  We kind of went back and forth on what to do with the info, and then today, while reading that post, I was like huh.  Interesting segue.  Fuck it, here we go.

Crap, the kids are asleep and I should be napping. I don't like it when good stuff interrupts my plans.
