Yesterday was one of my best friend's birthdays! Argentina turned 16 and to celebrate she had a few close girlfriends over! To celebrate I made her cookies and gave her two quick and easy joke gifts.

| Argentina and I in the 8th Grade. LONG time ago. |
When deciding how to decorate cookies one thing came to mind, Argentina's necklace. Her mom gave it to her when she was like six and she never takes it off. Basically it's become a fixture on Argentina's neck, see Argentina, see necklace. Anyhow, the necklace has a ladybug on it and has lots of special meanings. When we were in A Mid Summer Night's Dream together, Argentina named her fairy Ladybug, she was so cute! But the answer seemed obvious, make ladybug cookies! I had lots of fun rolling them out and decorating them! Argentina loved them! And according to her they tasted pretty good too! Not to mention they were SO EASY!
Argentina's joke gifts were almost as easy as her cookies, all I had to do was make photo copies for one of them! We were in a 24 hour theater showcase together in freshman year, for those of you who don't know, 24 Hour Theater is when a play is written, rehearsed, and performed in 24 hours, it's HARD! We were cast in a a post-apocalyptic themed duet together, my character was cold, mean, domineering, hers was crazy, and lonely. Mine was also a lesbian with a thing for her. We were both really unconformable, so we just did the best we could, and the show became a point of universal hate for both of us. While cleaning I found my copy of the script and so for Argentina's birthday I made her a photo copy and wrapped it up nice and pretty. When She opened it we both laughed for almost a solid 5 minutes. The other present is a specialty of mine, a homemade personalized mix CD. For Argentina, it was a compilation of some of my favorite show tunes! She really liked it! Mix CDs are easy and so personal, I love giving them for any occasion!
keep it classy
