0The phrase means 01i00'that is natural fate, so accept it02i00' and is used to console oneself or others. It is difficult to judge your example. It is better not to try to incorporate such idiomatic phrases until you are familiar with how it fits into utterances. Google the phrase and read through the uses there (ignore the pages referring to actual cookies, however).

00"Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles." 02br
02br
00In other words, that's just the way it is, and there's no need to be upset about it.0-
