#16 Controller Cookies For My Boyfriend’s Valentine’s Day Gift
Very tasty, “better-than-bakery sugar cookies” (from the Gluesticks blog, I believe) with simple powdered sugar & milk glaze. The fail here is my awful piping skills and sprinkle placement.

#23 My Ex Left Flowers On My Windshield
I dated this guy (23M) for 3 months and found out he was cheating. After I dumped him, for 2 months, he would show up at my house unannounced and tell my roommates he was “concerned about me and wanted to check up on me”. Several months later, I had already moved on and started dating someone new. It was Valentine’s Day and my current boyfriend and I woke up to flowers on my car.

Box is also dented a fair bit, but other than that, it’s alright. Still ridiculous to even happen in the first place. Did no one genuinely think doing this was a bad idea?
