GACC

GACC - the Great American Cookie Company.

We have a history.  On our second date ever, Grey and I were wondering around the mall when we stumbled upon GACC.  Grey insisted that he get a cookie so we stopped to let him pick one out and eat it.  With one bite gone, he then said, "Becky - your cookies are amazing, but you need to strive for this."

I of course was livid - like thought about dumping him that moment livid.  To this day, whenever it gets brought up, it ends up being a "tense" moment.  Grey will tell you that I misunderstood him.  He will tell you that no one can beat a James woman's cookie.  It was a mere error in judgement that one fateful night.  Grey will also tell you that he has paid dearly for that particular comment.  According to him, I have refused to bake cookies for him SINCE then (this would be going on 3 1/2 years now)...

Poor guy.

GACC got brought up a couple of weeks ago.  Apparently, G-dawg has always dreamed of a batman cookie cake for his birthday.  I even asked if I could bake him one to substitute and he sadly said that even though he would REALLY appreciate it and love it (he's learned huh?), it just wouldn't be the same. 

I went to GACC two weeks ago in search of one.  They don't and will never make batman ones.  Bummer.
I however got a brilliant idea -buy a plain one and decorate it myself! :) So here's to the batman cookie cake that instead of being a "happy birthday" surprise, it'll be a "Happy finishing of your first semester of grad school" surprise!
