Ah . . . serendipity!  That would be what happened when I walked the dog on Saturday past Elaine's house.  She and John were cleaning the garage getting ready for Josh's graduation party.  Annie and I stopped to chat and about fifteen minutes later, Elaine was over at our house borrowing all the decorations and stuff we had received for Matt's party last year so she could use it for Josh's party this year.

 

In the course of our conversation, Micah ended up showing Elaine pictures of the paw print cookies she made for Matt's party and last night Elaine stopped by and ordered "48 dozen cookies"!

 

We were a bit freaked out until she brought it down to 48 cookies - just four dozen!   After all, we are the Lakeville North Panthers and nothing makes a party like panther paw print cookie!  

 

Of course, our friends in Lino ordered Cougar paw print cookies - and they'll look exactly the same!
