Pass The Sushi!

I just real­ized this is the first Valentine’s Day in a very long time that I was excited. We had noth­ing excit­ing planned, heck I didn’t even get a gift for my boyfriend. Even bet­ter — I couldn’t even find a Valentine’s card I liked — so he got a Birth­day card with edits. Lol… Ah, that kinda makes me sound like a jerk. It was a cute card — I promise.

I actu­ally didn’t get excited until my daddy stopped by my store bring­ing me flow­ers and a cute stuffed ani­mal. He is so awe­some. I have the best dad in the world. As a lit­tle girl he would always give me car­na­tions on Valentine’s day and, I guess, some­things never change. I got all teary-eyed at his awe­some­ness and then the curi­ous­ness of whether or not my boyfriend would do any­thing kicked in.

When I got home he pre­pared din­ner ( even turn­ing the lights to low and light­ing some can­dles — which was down­right adorable to watch) and gave me my present — motor­cy­cle gloves. They are super cool. I don’t have the same knowl­edge as him about motor­cy­cle stuff but they were neat and thick and seem like they are going to save me hands should we crash and burn. At this point I felt like a jerk for assum­ing that he wasn’t going to get me any­thing.… >.< But I did make him cook­ies! A day late due to work — but cook­ies nonetheless.

These were not really Loft House Sugar Cook­ies. More like sugar cook­ies that needed lots more sugar to be like the great Loft House ones my boyfriend and I guiltily enjoy. You can check out the recipe here.  I rec­om­mend adding more sugar. They just weren’t sweet enough to be like the loft house cook­ies. And LOTS AND LOTS of flour. This recipe is sooo sticky. Mar­ble enjoyed the mess and has since crashed from his sugar-high.
