Who Doesn't Love Cookies?

Cookie!

Today was my daughter's 11th birthday. We did the cupcake and party thing on Saturday (at the bowling alley) and went out to breakfast before school today (at the friendly local Cracker Barrel). Still, what's a birthday without a little something sweet, covered in icing and laced with sprinkles? I thought these cookies fit the bill and were delicious. Similar to this recipe, these sugar cookies are soft and very cake-like -- a lot like Lofthouse cookies or those you might pick up in your local bakery.  But actually, between you and me, these are much better because they were made by Mom. Not that I'm biased or anything...

Funny-we were both doing birthday bowling parties last Saturday. We had Abby's b-day party at the bowling alley as well -with purple cupcakes. I had ordered them and they shaped them in the shape of a 9 (for nine years old) and had decorated them up all beautifully. I got them home, sat them on the kitchen table and ran out to get a few more things out of the car and when I got back in Charles, our black cat, had jumped right up on the box and squashed the middle of the 9. LOL-my teenage daughter quickly got a knife, some left over cake icing we had in the fridge and some ribbons and was able to make it look great again. Not one person noticed that the cupcakes in the middle were smaller than the others. ;)
