I celebrated my Birthday yesterday. ( I truly believe we should always celebrate Birthdays, each one we have is a gift, not everyone is so lucky) Imagine my anticipation when a large parcel arrived in the mail from a very special friend and her family. Inside was this 'cookie bouquet'! What a wonderful present and SO yummy!!! I'm rationing myself to a flower a day! The other thing I love about it is that it is a 'disposable' present. I once read an article that suggested unless it was a special gift that 'disposable' presents were best , candles, soaps etc, things that could be used and enjoyed but that wouldn't need a permanent home found for them. This made such a lot of sense that I try to remember it when possible.

Happy Birthday...love your bouquet
Happy birthday! The bouquet is gorgeous - what a wonderful idea. I too like disposable presents - heaven knows I don't need any more 'stuff'! I've just got to get my family trained on the idea.
What a fabulous bouquet.
Happy Birthday
Love and hugs Gina xxx

Your cookie bouquet is wonderful! I, too, think consumable gifts are best! what a great birthday present!
I love those cookie boquets! I got one when I had Jacob.
On the other hand, I have several gift candles that I only used once when we lot electricity - so I had to find spots for them - luckily I have not been gifted soaps/lotions - I generally don't care for the scents.
So there is a glitch to most plans. I want someone to pay for long arming... Now there is a gift that I can use, or cookies, cookies are good too.
Happy belated birthday! Your bouquet is beautiful :-)
Happy birthday to you.........beautiful gift.......
Happy Birthday! What a very unusual present. Not seen that before. Love the lavender in your last post. One of my fav smells.

How nice to be remember on your birthday. Happy Birthday. I didn't check email yesterday so I'm alittle behind. Enjoy your cookies.
Oooo... sorry I'm so late... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! And an 18 yr old son to boot! You're definitely way too young :)
Oooooooh happy birthday to you. What an amazing bouquet, although it would probably last just as long as flowers in this house (even less, LOL)
