...{clap, clap, clap, clap} Deep in the Heart of Texas (and LA!)
Yes. Please do a little *squeal* with me. That IS Jim Parsons. Eating a cookie. Eating a cookie made in my little ol' kitchen. Seriously.
Jim Parsons and I went to the same high school. I believe he was a freshman when I was a senior, so with class sizes of 700+, we probably passed in the halls, but never met. BUT, I *know* people who *know* him.
{It's kinda like that whole
6 degrees of Kevin Bacon thing, kinda.}
When someone from your hometown makes it big, you root for them. When someone from your hometown makes it big...and is gracious, and kind, and funny, and down-to-earth, you root for them even more.
AnyWAY...I had the opportunity to make cookies for Jim's 40th birthday party. (Yes, he's 40. No, I don't know what kind of face cream he uses...it's working, whatever it is.)
Jim is a Texas boy, and like any good Texas boy, wanted Texas theme cookies. So, that's what he got.
Texas cookies all around: Texas, Texas maps, Texas stars, Texas bluebonnets, armadillos, boots and hats.
{More details on the decorating later this week.}
People, put the Spring/Klein area of Texas on your radar. We're home to Lyle Lovett; we're home to Shelly of
Cookies and Cups; and yes,
we're home to Jim Parsons. And we couldn't be more proud!
{Happy Birthday, Jim! Welcome to your 40's. It's good here.}
PS...coveting that tablecloth.
{PPS...thank you, Todd!!!}
