C is for Cookie...

I finally did it.  I baked some delicious sugar cookies using the recipe from Bake at 350.  I even made my own royal icing and tried my hands at flooding.

Now, I should tell you that daily savings time sucks and that by the time I was finished it was too dark out for good photos.  But they're impressive.  Next time I'll document it better.

So, there you have them folks. I'm honestly really excited about them!! I'm ready for custom orders ;)

So, you'd think that's the tip top of my cookie excitement, right?  Well, you are so wrong!!

When shopping at Michaels for cookie stuff, I was unable to find any good cookie cutters.  A fact I complained about to my loving boyfriend for at least 30 minutes.  That's a tip for you: Don't go to Michaels looking for cookie cutters.

But now it's Friday.  And Friday the 13th no less.  But something AMAZING happened.  I received a package.  This is huge.  I never receive packages. Ever. What could it be?

What could it be?


Oh man. Who's it from?  Why is it here?  What is it? Oh man, oh man!

Did you guess yet?

Is that a LOBSTER???


Oh man.  SOMEBODY loves me.  I say somebody like that to emphasize that I'm not entirely sure who this anonymous gift is from.  I say that...but I'm certain it's a certain awesome lady.

But how amazingly sweet is it to receive an anonymous gift and have it be cookie cutters?  Just when I'm all mopey about things I get this nice gift.  I love you mystery gift giver.  You made my day.  Now, I'll make you cookies. :)
