As Ian already has told you (but apparently you didn't pay attention to), your 
expires is wrong. So if your cookies disappear you should get this right first.

from datetime import datetime, timedelta
expiretime = datetime.utcnow() + timedelta(days=365)

cookie["ID"]["expires"] = expiretime.strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT")

Expire is not the issue here, as i have it is working with no problem.
when i print the cookie expiration time is calculated properly.
Something else is going worng.
