It’s simple. Start a business!
Accomplished bakers and cousins Rossmery Avila and Kenia Osorio Fernandez started Delicias Galletas Decoradas in response to the urging from friends.
Both women are well-known and have a large extended family group living on the island.
Rossmery and Kenia were born on Isla, with ancestors from the Yucatán, Mérida, and Spain.

| Cool Spiderman Cookies |
Kenia Osorio is the decorating specialist. She created the fabulous Spiderman birthday cookies for Barlow Wareing’s birthday party. All of the little kids, including Lawrie, thought the cookies were amazing, wishing they could have two instead of just one!
If you want to order your very own supply of decadent treats contact Rossmery or Kenia via email: galletasdelicias@gmail.com.
If you don’t have any idea of what a carrot cake with cream cheese filling Moon Pie is, you need to try one – right away!

| Bessie and gourmet dog cookies. |
Long-time resident of Isla, she is well-known for her beautiful shell mirrors, displayed in some of the best locations on Isla: Barlito’s Café and Bakery, Olivia’s Restaurante, Su Casa, and several private homes, including a matching pair made for Steve and Lindell Lehrer.
Bessie
first discovered Isla Mujeres in 1981.
She finally made the move in 1988 to live full-time on the island, working
at the Cristalmar Hotel on Sac Bajo for a time before retiring. Over the years, her elaborate mirrors have
migrated to homes in New York, California, Texas, France and Italy.
As for her dog
biscuit business, the cookies are made from natural ingredients of rice,
barley, milk, eggs, plus chicken or beef livers. The sample bag we brought home got a
two-tails-wagging review from the beach dogs Odd and Missy.
A sample bag of 100 grams costs 30 pesos (under $3.00), but if you are treating a beach dog or neighbourhood pooch, Bessie will give you a break on the price; buy one, get one free. Bessie would be happy to deliver, although she is conveniently located near Chedraui in the middle of the island, should you want to pick up a supply. Don’t forget to keep these treats in the freezer. They don’t have any preservatives and will spoil in the tropical heat.
So, now you are all set for cookies; cookies for you, cookies for your friends, and cookies for your four-legged pals.
Never mind the calories. There is always another Monday to start a diet.
Hasta Luego
Lynda and Lawrie
