Pass The Plates

Tonight Marjorie and I decided to use up some leftover cookie dough to ding dong ditch people and start our own game of "Around the World Ward" with plates. Marjorie had two plates that she didn't care about so we made two plates of cookies. We did a girl's apartment in Arcadia and a guy's apartment in Sparks. We included notes that said, "Here's some cookies to start. When they are gone, make some treats and use this plate to ding dong ditch another apartment in the ward. Enjoy the goodness and fun." We're hoping that the plates make it to a majority of the ward apartments. Even if they only go to one more apartment, it would be a success.

It was a lot of fun. I did the girls. There are some bushes in front of their doors so I hid behind a big one right in front of the door and Marjorie was laying flat on the grass. I don't think they saw me, but we think Marjorie might have been caught. One girl was looking out the kitchen window trying to see who left the cookies.

We then went to the apartment next to the guys in "Topaz Ten", that's what they call their apartment. They're pretty cool. They were the guys we did the Easter eggs with. We gave Keith (the only guy that was home) some cookies and asked if we could hide in his apartment after ditching. So Marjorie knocked and left the cookies and we hid next door. We were telling Keith about what we were hoping happens with the plates when we realized his kitchen window was open. We could hear them reading the note, so we hope they couldn't hear us laughing next door. If they did, hopefully they don't know who we are.

I like doing little random and spontaneous things like this. I think it would be awesome if we got one of the plates back. I'll be sure to report what become of this little game.

Oh, while I'm on the topic of cookies, we went to the store tonight. It's nice having two roommates with cars instead of a truck because they go the store more often. It's nice not having to stock up for three weeks. It's nice to be able to carry everything up in one load. Anyways, Macey's was having a 2 for $2 sale on Animal Circus Cookies. You know the one's I'm talking about; all pink, white and covered with sprinkles. They were right there when you walk in the door. How could I refuse? I did feel a little regret because that is some delicious temptation I do not need, but I couldn't help it. Makes me feel nostalgic of my childhood. Same thing happens when I see the little red boxes of animal crackers with the string to carry it around.

There are some things you just never grow out of.
