I'm with some of the other posters here. If someone leaves cookies on my doorstep and runs off, I'm not gonna eat them and be all cheery. I'd think that the cookies would have poison, or been made with dirt, or with "special" chocolate chips(courtesy of their dog). Maybe I'm slightly paranoid, or maybe that's just the way society made me. I think if the girls had stayed until I showed up and handed the cookies to me, I'd be a little less skeptical.
This thing happened during the summer, so it was probably only dark for an hour at 10:30. That's not exactly middle of the night antics. I think the whole situation is stupid. The lady overreacted and the kids picked the wrong time of day to do that.
