and the winner is......

So Canada just won Gold in the men's freestyle moguls. Abby and Maya were up watching and cheering like crazy for Canada to win. It was looking promising for a little while there that we'd have two Canadian boys up on the podium, but hey we won't complain that we only got one. Unless you live under a rock or you don't watch the Olympics... which I'm sorry I just don't understand at all and I'm not sure we can be friends anymore...... then you know that this is the first Gold won by a Canadian while the Olympics have been played out on Canadian soil. So woo hoo Alex Bilodeau! Good for you. And if you know me at all then you have to know I was all weepy at the shots of his family in the crowd and the story about his desire to have his older brother Frederic, who has cerebal palsy up on the podium with him... well shoot... that just about did me in.

But this post is about bigger and better things... cookies. Yes it's time to announce the winner of the cookies. Want to see what you're playing for....



Look at that deliciously gooey rolo center. Mmmmm. I think I'm going to bake a batch right now. Except that it's 10:45 pm and I already made pink lemonade cupcakes. So, tomorrow maybe.

Congratulations to my long time bloggy bff (and it was all because of a jar of mayo) Merry from Merry & Dewey in Canada!!
Couldn't have happened to a nicer girl! I hope you enjoy them my friend.

Now if you didn't win these cookies, please don't despair. There's a very good likelihood that I'll do this again, next month. And if you can't wait that long... well hop on over to Etsy and order some up. I've got chocolate chip and rolo cookies listed, but watch for more items to be added in the near future.
