ECU vs. ODU... a family rivalry that is meeting head to head in a tasty tailgating party to throw down.

Pirates101... coming to a PC near you

Pirates101 is KingsIsle's newest addition to their already awesome reputation of wonderful gaming. Based on the same worlds of Wizard101, Pirates101 takes the players on a totally new ride into the sky and onto custom pirate ships to battle new foes and totally new adventures. The characters are awesome and I can't wait to try it. These were created for to celebrate their launch here in Austin, the mini cookies are gold doubloons and the pink pear looking cookies are called "yum" fruit... you know... yo ho ho and a bottle of "yum!" (the 'yum' fruit cookies were actually flavored like rum). Their humor is still right on target for a wide range of age groups and I couldn't wait to help celebrate this latest masterpiece with them.

These characters, clockwise from right to left are:  Deacon, Rat Beard, Bonnie Anne, and El Toro. The portraits were about 5 inches tall and all hand-painted. 

Pirates vs. Ninjas!!! Welcome baby Mason

What could be more fun that Pirate vs. Ninja cookies to announce to the world  the arrival of Mr. Mason... not much. The idea for these was presented to me from the father and I was so excited to give them a shot. We decided on the cartoon style ninja and pirates with matching gold doubloons and mini throwing stars to match. So much cuteness in such a little plate, I love how much fun these were and how outside the box they were from typical "baby" cookies.

Cookie's Cookies

Jerry's Birthday Cookies

My friend and coworker, who I have done many cookies for in the past, told her mom about my new hobby and she decided to put me to the test. I apologize in advance for the really bad pics. I wish I had a good excuse but it was really early in the morning when I started boxing them up and I'm just glad I remembered to use the camera at all.

This set was for a friend that was turning 60. I was told his pride and joys are a '57 Corvette and a sailboat named Synchrony. His hobbies were crabbing, fishing, and duck hunting. This one was kind of fun because I could be really creative with what I wanted to do. We decided on a corvette and a sail boat of course, then a duck decoy, a fish, and a Maryland blue crab, since that's what he fishes for. I love the net behind the crab :) She said the birthday boy enjoyed them a lot... onto the next order....

ECU Tailgating Cookies... go Pirates!

The next order for Cookie was going to attend an ECU tailgating party. I'd done a few college things before but ECU had very stylized everything so this was a little bit of a challenge. We decided to use a little bit of liberty and try to embrace the spirit of ECU rather than be a photo copy of their logos and mascot. I went out a bought the skull and cross bone cutter and I found a really cute little pirate hat that we bought as well and I used on top of my skull and cross bones :)
