The Sweetest

I had seen the oatmeal raisin cookie recipe on Smitten Kitchen a couple of days ago, and thanks to the great photography, I couldn't get it off my brain. So yesterday at 9:30am I called my sweetheart, Ross, from work and asked him to make me oatmeal cookies with cranberries instead of raisins because I don't really like raisins. Mind you that this is a request from a very spoiled girlfriend. He just made a double batch of yummy chocalate chip cookies for Mother's day and we just polished them off the night before and I was already craving cookies. Over the phone, he told me, "we just had cookies!" and basically made it sound like he was not going to indulge my silly request. I generally don't eat very much sugar but felt really low on sugar all day and was really drained when I got home. Lo and behold, there were cookies waiting on the counter for me! He had already made the batter when I called him in the morning. Really, he's the best. Wouldn't you agree?
