Sweet cookies for a winter day

Cameos, hearts, and flowers to brighten a cold winter day!

Is it almost spring?

Silly turkey cookies

SILLY TURKEY COOKIES

What did the turkeys say to the pilgrims?

I mean, can you blame them?

Tartan plaid Christmas cookies

Holy cow, these took me

FOREVER

to make.

It went something like this:

FIVE colors of icing,

FOUR cookie cutters,

THREE cups of coffee,

TWO Aleve tablets,

AND

ONE very, very, very, sore hand!

Time for Christmas cookies!

Whether you like traditional cookies,

or a little shabby chic pastel,

a winter wonderland,

or cookies to leave out for Santa,

I think we can all agree that

COOKIES AND HOLIDAYS GO HAND IN HAND!

Happy Independence Day!

Long may she wave.

My heart is with our soldiers and veterans today.

Have a "capitol" 4th!

Wood and lace cookies

Two of my favorite things in decorating are wood and lace.

These cookies were all about trying out a couple of new techniques.

Swirling two shades of brown to get a wood grain effect,

and using a a very small icing tip to create the look of crochet.  

The lace was seriously painstaking to do.

My hand was saying "ouch" after only a few cookies.

Maybe one of these days I will learn how to crochet with yarn, but until then I will settle for using icing!
