I took a trip back to West Texas this past weekend...and since I'm too scared to travel 6 hours with cakes for my old clients, I offer to take cookie orders instead. I used to not enjoy cookie decorating NEAR as much as cake decorating. It seemed to take Foreverrrrrr! I could knock out a 3 tier cake in the time it took me to do a few dozen cookies (ok maybe that's a tad exagerated!) It seems I've done more cookies lately since moving here, so I'm gettting faster and starting to dig it more. I used tutorials from SugarBelle on 2 of these..the Camo and the Tie Dyed. I posted links below

Mother's Day cookies

 I LOVE how these turned out! If someone were to get me Mother's Day cookies...I would want it to be these. Luckily, my Bestie, Miki, liked the idea of a mom style tattoo cookie for her order...so I got to make these! YAY

Tie Dye cookies

Teacher Appreciation Week

It's that time of year again...time to tell the teachers in our lives just how much we appreciate them! This year, I have 11 teachers between my 4 kiddos to thank. This school year, my kids all started at new schools in our new town. We could NOT be happier with the schools and the teachers here! They all have such amazing, caring, teachers ...and I wanted to tell them all a big "Thank you!" I found these cute printable tags here:

and attached to small bags filled with decorated cookies for each teacher.

        Don't forget music, Art and other Specials teachers!
