kookies :)

the 6th of december last year was the first time i saw the kooks live in concert.

my friend jess & i travelled down to doncaster to see them, to put that into context, that is about a 100 mile journey. i am a huge huge huge fan of this band.

which is why i was so devastated with what happened at the concert.

basically, right before the kooks came on stage my friend passed out & shortly after so did i.

:

i missed like over half the concert, it just wasn't a good night at all.

so, this year we decided to do an anniversary type thing to give us a happy memory of the day & we made kooks cookies!

us posing with various kitchen acoutrements.

including jess with a tortoise pastry cutter! :O

yes, we're wearing matching tshirts.

we got them printed last year for the concert - i told you i was an uberfan!

they have kooks lyrics on them, mine says i'd like to take you out for tea & biscuits (very apt i thought!) and jess' says yes i like stormy weather, from my windowsill.

kooooooooooooookies!

the more madly decorated ones.

jess' expertly decorated tortoise.

the special needs biscuits.

luuuke!

the lead singer's name.
yes, that thing underneath it is a straw hat.

hugh, the guitarist.
and, of course, a fedora.

kooks & paul the drummer boy.

these biscuits are spectacularly yummy, surprisingly as we messed up the recipe so many times & had to get my brother to save the dough - who then ruined it again!

can't wait to take these into school tomorrow :)
