Angry Birds Birthday

Follow The_Cookie_Counter on Instagram We continue with the March Birthdays around here.

But I have to say that the green googly eyes piggies are definitely my favorite! I love how quirky they look, it's hard to believe that they are the exact same eyes used on the Angry Birds but yet their expressions look so different. Thanks Karen for such a fun order! Hope you guys have a blast at the birthday party!

These Jessie cookies were the first order that I have ever shipped. Normally, I only accept Houston orders where I know that I will be back in town for the delivery. But when my customer insisted that I deliver
