Minecraft, take 2... this time with more FLAVOR :)

So I met the sweetest girl at CookieCon last November named Rachel. She lives in Wisconsin and is an aspiring, and super talented, pastry "artist" of all types of tasty treats. She saw my Minecraft cookies from before and asked for some to give her husband, Luke. While I know Rachel is perfectly capable of making her own cookies, I decided to do something extra special... just for them so don't ask  I took all the little bits of flavored dough I had in the freezer and made a variety platter for them. Vanilla bean, Red Velvet, Lime, Chocolate, Lemon and Gingerbread. Today is Luke's birthday... Happy Birthday Luke!

Minecraft, More addictive than lemonade...

It doesn't matter where you're from... we're all Chickens, let's have FUN!

A Family Reunion in Maryland

Shhh, it's a surprise. My good friend Abby asked me to make her some cookies to take with her to a family reunion she is on a plane flying to right now. I wasn't allowed to post pictures of anything until after she got there because her mom loves Facebook and we are friends :) I had so much fun making these, we had a whole list of ideas but settled on Crabs (you know, cuz it's Maryland), Chickens (because supposedly they are well known for their cooked chicken), and to surprise her grandma we did "Mom P" cookies, complete with bright pink lipstick. I have to admit, grandma was a bit of a challenge to figure out. I had to do these all in one night so I couldn't do too many layers that had to dry... then I discovered food markers! These things are awesome! I drew out 10 heads with hair and then just filled in the lines, easy as pie. I cannot wait to hear how the family likes them... I'll post an update if I hear anything.
