Last chance  sencerio:Make a comfy doghouse(JK) Just listen to those guys. My advice ain't no good.

Don't listen to the nay sayers in this thread. Money can buy anything: Forgiveness, happiness, love, etc etc. You just need enough money. I suggest buying her a dolphin. How can anybody be sad/angry at you/disappointed in you/etc when you just gave them a DOLPHIN?!?!

ooo, she went golfing today. perhaps golf clubs?

Do you seriously want to arm her with a bagful of weapons?  Think that one through because, in my opinion, if she gets the slightest idea that your just giving her the clubs because she's mad at you, this is what I see: You running down the driveway with her in tow swinging a 9-iron like a madman and you ending up on the 6 o'clock news like Tiger Woods... 

True, in a situation where the other party is upset at you, it's not best to simply give them a gift.  If anything, whatever you choose to do, should involve both of you participating together and having ample opportunity to talk about the situation.  My honest suggestion?  Think of a nice fancy restaurant that you know she would love (Perhaps candlelight/to-go if her favorite place to eat isn't fancy/quiet), blindfold her, tell her you have a surprise for her, and say your taking her somewhere (Unless it's home... you can still blindfold her etc, but just get rid of the line where you're taking her somewhere).  Then, once you reveal the "surprise" and get situated, ask her what you can do to fix what you did wrong and apologize for what you did if you haven't already.  This will show that you don't intend to fix the problem with a night out, but rather, that you simply wanted a nice place to talk about what happened.  As men/males/guys, we need to be able to "man-up" and discuss our problems.  (Ladies are usually big on communication).  It may seem a bit hard, but talking is what needs to be done, and if they (Ladies) know that discussing things like that is difficult for you, they will appreciate an attempt to talk about what happened more than any gift you could give them.

thanks for all the great advise and support guys. me and her are doing alot better now that we did some good talking.

now all i gotta do is surprise her later next week with that extra special present. im currently leaning towards making the little balsa wood charm and making her cookies (even though im a terrible cook)...and the dolphin if i can find a place to keep it.

congrats

ps- depending on how much time you want to spend, you can always go with a harder type of wood. It would be more durable than balsa and might cost less as well. just fyi

What your not? Why is your board name Master KChef then? 

hmm, i was gonna go with the regular cookie dough at the store. but you think making it from scratch would be better?

*Accepts that he will get -1'd* Defently not. Go with homemade. And I recomend a cookbook recipe.

1 Devil's Food Cake Mix
2 eggs
Bit 'O Water (or Vodka. Your call)
Half cup of shortening
Powdered sugar

Combine everything, mix. Shape into fairly small balls. Roll in the powdered sugar. Bake at 375 until they're delicious (8 mins or so).



Thats a real cookie recipe... om nom nom

Not to criticize SomeKittens, but (to me) it seems like his recipe would create fire, not cookies.

I've made it several times, once for my (then pre-)ex-girlfriend.  They turn out dry and crumbling, but are really good if you make sure to add enough water.

Homemade sure does taste better, but will it get you more out of the doghouse?  I doubt it.  Just saying "I made these for you" should be enough.

what kind of cookies are these? also, does the vodka really make it taste better?

Chocolate Crackle. Quick (shouldn't take more than 15 minutes) and delicious.

Vodka makes everything taste better. Try vodka vodka....
