What started as a Florida grandmother and granddaughter baking cookies ended in a third relative being arrested for alleged battery and bodily harm, according to an arrest affidavit.
The victim, Jeanne Keaton, told police she was baking cookies at her home in Fort Pierce with her granddaughter on Thanksgiving, the report stated. Keaton's daughter, Kiley Wood, who also was at the home, began arguing with her mother and then "flipped out," Keaton told the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office deputies.
Wood, 29, then threw a cookie at her mother, striking her right eye, the report said.
Keaton then left the house to call the police from a neighbor's house. Wood also told her mother, "I am not through with you yet," the report said.
Wood admitted to throwing a cookie at her mother's face, and "knew she was wrong for throwing the cookie," the report stated.
Wood was arrested and transported to the St. Lucie County jail without incident.
Meanwhile, in Indiantown, Fla., deputies arrested a man who threw hot sweet potato pie in his girlfriend's face on Thanksgiving because he didn't like the food, according to a Martin County Sheriff's Office report.
Christopher Ford, 46, went home on Thanksgiving and asked for something to eat, according to the report.
But Ford was upset with the meal his girlfriend fixed for him and they got into an argument in the kitchen. While arguing, Ford picked up the sweet potato pie his girlfriend had recently removed from the oven and slammed it into her face, according to the report.
Ford ran outside the rear door of the residence when the woman's three teenagers went into the kitchen to see what the ruckus was and saw their mom with pie on her face, according to the report.
After deputies arrived, the victim was transported to Martin Memorial Hospital South to treat the burns and blisters on her neck from the hot pie, according to the report.
Later that night deputies found and arrested Ford. He was charged with domestic battery and was released on a $5,000 on Friday, said Rhonda Irons, the Martin County Sheriff's Office spokesperson.
