So it was my friend's birthday earlier this week...

Ok... first things first...  Yes, the biopsy showed that my sore a few weeks ago was benign.  I am continuing to do well health-wise, aside from a little cold that I had for the past week.  Jake isn't doing quite that well.  His back pain seems to be resurfacing, although he's had a few appointments with the pain specialist, and it seems his pain has spread one facet joint above where it was before.  He'll probably be having another nerve cauterization procedure done soon.  Also, I decided to share my cold with him.  How nice of me!  Poor guy. :(

Anyway... I really don't have much to write about these days, but last weekend I made some pretty awesome cookies and I've been wanting to share pictures with everyone, so.... voila!

It was our good friend's birthday this past Monday.  I've been trying to start the tradition of making people their favorite type of cookie on their birthday.  Well, our friend had once mentioned his favorite type was sugar cookies, and since I also knew that he was quite into video games, I decided this was the only logical conclusion.

I am quite proud of the way the cookies turned out both looks and taste-wise, so I figured I'd share it with you all.  Enjoy!
