I’ll explain my curiosity here:
I bought some gifts for a girl a knew years ago, and she kept them, which is all right with me because I would have no use for a real looking stuffed dog (she liked stuffed animals) and a jewelry/music box.
But Dad went to the fair with some girl in high school and won a cookie jar at some game thing and gave it to her. When they broke up, she returned it. A cookie jar!!! (It seems so insignificant!)
When the girl that I knew went our separate ways, it was sort of like friends, no big fight or anything…
Maybe Dad pissed this girl off bad enough that she wanted absolutely nothing to do with him, not even a crummy cookie jar!
