Election Day

I'm really, really not trying to get a political conversation going alongside these cookies (I had to get that off my chest first), and yes, I have both parties represented equally. With this batch, there was both fun and frustration. The Obama logo was HARD! It looked so simple, an "O", half blue, and half stripey. This was a case where I wish I had a kopykake projector, or something like it. I am usually happy with free handing everything, but I had a hard time getting the proportions right. Good thing they're for my sister!! Stay tuned for a local election cookie.

It's Autumn Time

Fall is my favorite time of year. Nora and I made some of these mini-cookies for her preschool teacher, and they looked so cute in a mason jar tied with ribbon. I wish I had included some of the ones she decorated in the photos. They were....abstract. More cookie pictures coming soon! I've been on an upsurge lately.
