Going to the Chapel.....

My sister got married last month.

It was beautiful.  And perfect.  And I made the sweets :)

Wedding Cake.  I've done wedding cakes before but this is the largest I've ever done.  Let me tell you, this was an experience lol!!

And of course, the cookies.  Credit for the photos goes to Shannon Skloss Photography,  She did an awesome job!!  

I got the cutter from Whisked Away Cookies.  I love their cutters and her tapered cutting edge.  She revolutionized plastic cutters for me.  Love.

I wish my sister and new brother all the best!!  I couldn't be happier!!

Sweet Simple Baby Cookies

Yes.  It's been a while.  Hopefully I'll get Christmas cookies up this year.  There is really no telling and I'm not even going to pretend that I have any of this all planned and together,

So here is my random cookie enjoyment for the day,

I made these cookies a while back for a baby shower for a friends beautiful new baby boy

Cabbage Babies

So my husband bought me a KK a while back.....and I never used it.

Now that we moved, I didn't have the space to bring it with me.  So there it is...gone now.

Never used.

Except once.....

Happy Valentine's Day

Hello out there!!

Yes, I know, long time no see....read...whatever.

Let's catch up shall we?  July last year I made a sudden move back to Texas (Howdy Y'all!).  Got a job in commission sales,,,,new home sales to be exact...and I love my new job.  Husband came back from his work in California and started school learning high end automotive tuning (I think that sounds right)....Sophie is in Kindergarten and John is just the sweetest funniest little guy EVER!  (Naturally.... )

Anyway....I made these a while back....and it's nothing new....just a throwback to one of my earliest and most favorite designs...

These are Ecrandal lingerie cutters.....I have had this cutter for like 5 years at least now and it still looks practically new.  Love these cutter.  Love the shop. Love the people.

Anyway, back to life....

I am going to try really hard to get on here and do more posts...be more active.  It's going to be hard....Full time job, husband, kids, new place...it takes up time.  But hey, I'm back in Texas which means...

I CAN TAKE ORDERS AGAIN!!

Long Time, No See......

Long time....no see.....

I have a reason....don't throw the icing bags at me yet...

I have news.... no I'm not pregnant.....but I am going through a life transition.

I recently moved back to Texas.

That's right.....the prodigal child has returned home

(can I call myself a prodigal child??)

See more Texas Cookies Here

Yeeeeeeeeeeees!!

Took a job selling new home construction while hubs is home and going back to school.

It's busy times here.  I do have some cookies I made a while back that I haven't had time to post.  But I will eventually.  In the mean time I'll post a few things from days past...for the holidays.  And if I'm lucky, I'll get into the kitchen this Christmas and make something....Anything.  Sadly my husband does more baking than me....

Just wrong.

Baby Season

So it seems to be baby season.  I've done so many baby shower sets.  AND I've received good news that one of my good friends is expecting her first in December.

So I'm not sure what it is about summer babies....is it the settling of the cool weather in the fall?  Make people stay indoors??  I dunno.

Anyway, I'm not going to knock it because I love making baby shower cookies :)

So expect to see some soon.

In the mean time, if YOU are in the business of making baby....cookies that is.  Here are a few gorgeous cutters that you might like.

Housewarming

Going to make this one short because I am SWAMPED with house work...and making cookies of course ;)  In fact today is banana bread day.  AND I just received my new beater blade for my 7 qt Kitchen-aid that I got for Christmas so I'm psyched to test it out.

I made these for a friend who had just moved into her new home:
