Arr, these be not homemade, but they are by far the most amazing cookies you can find in a store. I have had boxes of these stolen from parties. Seriously. I am not making this up.

And I will be in attendance with these cookies of endless joy.

Damnit I just realized this is during the weekend of Night Part 2 and I am acting for it. So I don't know when I will be showing up for the BBQ. But I should be there at some point during the day.
