happy valentine's day

Yesterday was pretty cool. Went to my cousin's birthday party, hung out with the cousins, went to see Valentine's Day (it was cute) and get boba with my best friend, and then we headed back to my cousins' for another late night of playing games. We play Balderdash in which our answers not only got raunchy, but they mostly made fun of my brother and his douche bag wrestling ways.
Believe me, if you knew him you would understand.

This is the first year I am celebrating this joyous and fun commercial holiday of candy and uber cheesy love with someone.
After learning that my best friend got me something when I didn't think he would, I scrambled to try and come up with something original, cute, and not expensive.
If you've seen the movie Up, there is a badge they have that's a grape soda bottle cap.
It's one of my favorite movies and I saw it with him which was really cute. His favorite bottle soda is Orange Crush and he loves cookies and cookie cakes. So by adding ideas together, here is my valentine's gift to him:

I wrote a small letter which included the nerdy way to say I love you


And then bottled it up

Filled another bottle with sweethearts

Wrapped all the bottles with tissue paper (that way they don't make any noise when I carry them and give away the surprise)


And then I got him a cookie cake WITH cookie monster on it. (since he calls me cupcake monster, I call him cookie monster)


The bottle that has the note is closed with a cork that way I can keep the cap and make the badge for him :)

So now I am off to finish getting ready. My kitten is finally asleep on my bed. She was spazing out and meowing like crazy all morning.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone!
