IT'S IPOD'S BIRTHDAY!!!: Bleeding Happy Face Cookies

Moving to Chicago and leaving amazing friends and family in L.A. was a ginormous transition.  I'm pretty happy here in Chicago don't get me wrong but sometimes there's a pang of sadness cause they are THAT awesome.  And occasionally-- on a date such as March 31st, it stings just a taaaad bit more.  Okay, so it's more like a bullet to the head.  Waaaah!!!  Why?

*sigh*

Because it was my beloved Ipod's birthday!!!!  Kelli, one of my all-time best, greatest friends in the whole wide world of the United States of America and roomie turned... *cough*... sweet sixteen.  And yet here I am in Chicago.  And there she is in L.A.  Tax returns SUCKED this year!!!


So, anyway... I HAD TO, HAD TO, HAD TO make my beloved Ipod something for her birthday!

Story goes:  Once upon a time when I was still in L.A., I asked Kell what cake she wanted for her birthday.  A huge Quentin Tarantino & Tom Sevini fan, she asked me for a cake that would 'bleed.'  We decided on the Happy Face with the bullet hole.  Disturbing?  Egh.  You have to know the Ipod.

Here's the cake I did years ago.  The gun is fake.  

I think.


As for the bleeding factor... 

Muerto!  Quentin, you would be so proud!!!



So here's what I came up with this year:  
COOKIES... that bleed.

(As long as whatever I send her bleeds, we're good).


They started out cute enough...



And then they somehow got more graphic.
Huh.




See?  That's a bad day right there.
Poor little Smiley Face Cookie.


Kell says, "He had it comin.'"  
(He was a 'bad guy.')







I call this one: What-I-Feel-Like-When-I-Look-At-My-Bank-Account.






Nope.  THIS picture is called 'What-I-Feel-Like-When-I-Look-At-My-Bank-Account.'



And I call this one:  Ipod-Wishes-There-Was-More-In-HER-Bank-Account



But do they bleed!???  Do they!?  Do they!?



DO THEY!!???



I think so.  :)



Happy Birthday my favorite Kelli Bowlden!!!  I love you sooo, soooo, soooo much!!!  My life isn't the same without you!!!

Kick@$$ Birthday Wishes,
ME!!!!

These cookies look so good! I wonder what would happen if you were to try and make them less smiley, i.e. with an angry mouth. Ah!
