March Already??

Can you believe it's March?  Of course, I'm counting down until I deliver this baby in June, but it really just feels like we finished Christmas!  I'll take it though.  February was a big blur for me.  In addition to the plethora of Valentine's orders (too many to photograph - I was literally pumping them out the door!), I had the following orders AND my son's 6th birthday party. I still can't believe what a blessing SugarChic has been in my life.  Thank you so much!  

 Lego Favors for Ben's classmate and friend, Brady.

Thanks Elizabeth!  It was a great party!

 Cat in the Hat

 Whimsical and fun!

Thanks, Shelley!

 Thanks, Michelle!

 Diamond rings to thank a jeweler.

Thanks, Virginia!

 Due date cookie favors for a baby shower!

Toni sent me a pic from Pinterest of a similar cookie

made with fondant.  Since I don't use fondant, I decided to layer the cookie "date" with a small cookie.

 It worked out better than I thought and
gave them some interest!
Thanks, Toni (and Lia)!

 Petites to match a baby shower invite.

Thanks, Michelle!

 Campfire cookies for Nathan's 5th birthday!

Thanks, Ellen!

Have you ever heard of Monster High?

I hadn't until I got this picture from Lindsey.

Her daughter wanted cookie pops to look like this!

Yikes!

 I hand cut these and think they came out great!

They were given out as favors.

Thanks, Lindsey!

More to come.  I am hoping to do a "Shamrock Special."  Stay tuned for more info!  Check my FB page for announcements and info regarding specials and ordering.  

Finishing off 2011...a little late!

The end of my 2011 was also the end of my morning sickness and first trimester fatigue.  I finally feel like myself again besides the ever-expanding belly.  So...here is the end of my 2011 cookies that I just never got around to sharing.  

 Pretty in Pink for a first birthday.

Third birthday to match a darling invitation

 Petite-sized Baby feet for twins.

Thank you to everyone for making my 2011

so successful and BUSY!

Better at Baking than Blogging?

Miss me?  Here are some way-back-when orders...with many more to come.  As usual.  I guess I am a better baker than blogger.

What do pizza and magic have in common?  It's a 6th birthday party for a special boy!  Alison ordered pizza cookies - yes, slices of pizza - and "magic" cookies for her Beck's birthday party.  Fun!

 Very fun, but kinda weird!

A cookie that looked like melted cheese.

Sweet or savory?

 Bringing a touch of magic!

Beck had a magician as his special guest.

B for Beck!

 Alison fed her large crowd with

PETITES!!!

 Perfect to pop!

Thank you, Alison!!!

Let It Rain!

Well, hello there.  It's been awhile.  Have you ever longed for a rainy day so you don't have to do some of the things you really should do because the weather is not cooperating?  That is today for me.  It's gray and wet outside - the perfect excuse to be blogging.

You can rest assured that when I'm not updating my blog, I am baking or...still unpacking, organizing, cooking dinner, getting numerous drinks for my kids in a 12 hour period, tutoring a 3rd grader, exercising, watering my mums, drinking wine, kinda sleeping, etc.  I wish I could include reading my magazines (one of my favorite things to do), but not quite yet.  A girl can dream.

As of last week, both of my kids are in school (Ben in K each afternoon and Paige in preschool two afternoons a week).  I am adjusting to our new routine and really plan to carve out some blog time soon.  Right now?  Paige and I are in my bed on a rainy afternoon - she is eating popcorn and watching Alvin and the Chipmunks while I feverishly upload and put together this titillating post for your viewing pleasure!  The cutest part is when she sees each cookie pic, she declares that one her fave!  Love this girl!  We are due over at Ben's school in 60 minutes for pickup.  I have about 15 orders from the past 5 weeks I need to post so this one will consist of many.  Let's try to get a few in right now!  GO!

 Petites have been a popular choice lately to

supplement an order of custom platter cookies 

for a large crowd.

These were for a polka dot baby shower.

Thanks, Nancy!

My friend, Dawn sold her house and

Much more to come...in the meantime, I will be cleaning the huge popcorn mess to my left...in my bed!

See?  And I wonder why I'm so slow on the blogging!  :)
