an ode to hannah.

this is what the best cookie in the world looks like.

no joke.

this was in my mail today.

(hannah, seriously, i need you to "feel" like i'm

going to have $100 check in the mail tomorrow!)

this is what the best cookie maker in

the world looks like.

this is hannah whyte.

she is justin's cousin, but she likes me more.

ha ha.

she's a student at UC Irvine.

she likes to post photos and comments on

facebook about how great her cookies are.

she says i've been "nagging" her about

sending us some cookies.

i don't know what she's talking about.

for the record...

i do not nag.

i guilt trip.

there's a huge difference, hannah.

if you're going to learn anything in college,

that should be lesson #1. :)

emily got to meet hannah last summer(well, she saw

her when she was about 8 mos. old, but she doesn't

remember that) and fell in love with her.

anytime i mention hannah she gets all squealy and

says, "my big cousin named hannah?? oh, i love her!!"

what a nerd.

hannah, lesson #2 for you.

emily hates nuts.

seriously un-american.

i gave her that cookie and she ate it.

nuts and all.

(well, she picked out like 3 and shared with aiden,

 but still..huge accomplishment!)

there were like 30 nuts in it.

all i had to say is that it was from hannah.

i have a long list of foods she won't eat.

maybe you can get to eat those, too.

aiden loves nuts.

he calls them beans.

i have no idea why.

and he's on a steroid,

so 'roid rage loves cookies. :)

lesson #3 hannah:

do not send justin's cookies to his house.

if you want justin to get cookies,

mail them to his work.

those blasted things are upstairs

shouting on a mega phone for

me to come and eat them.

cruel and unusual punishment.

you get an A+++ for cookie making.

maybe we'll send you a girl scout badge for it. :)

ps...we tried to call you,

but i guess you were at class.

it was like 10 a.m. there.
