I'm laughing a bit at the need for a Southern mother to enforce the cookie table tradition. My mother's "sweet insistence" would simply have been "That's just how it's done." The negative of that -- "that's just not how it's done" -- was what I heard when I lobbied for a non-chocolate groom's cake. "But mother, I'm the groom and I don't like chocolate cake!" "That's just not how it's done."

Yeah, the groom's cake was chocolate.
