Gobble, Gobble Em Up!

Yep. That's my new title for the Turkey Thanksgiving Cookie Gift. Thanks to my friend Lisa for that funny name. My brain is drained from a week of total excitement, so "Gobble, Gobble Em Up" it is going to be! 

Here is a group photo and there are more detailed photos on the 'view larger' option on the product page. Check it out by clicking here.


Here are a few more recent cookie projects.

Forgot this one from before ... almost 200 celebration cake cookies for the PA Association for the Blind 100th Anniversary dinner. 


True Story: These cookies were finished and Topher and I were packing them up late at night. After about 50 were complete, Topher asked me "Is there a dot missing?" I thought it was a joke, but no, not a joke. A dot really was missing!! So we had to unpack all the cookies, re-dot them, let them dry, and then re-pack them. 


Topher never ceases to amaze me. I mean c'mon. Who spots a spelling error in Braille? Topher Yorks, that's who!! I was just so glad it was him and NOT the client. That would have been major bad stuff.

So then there are these. An autumn themed birthday collection. I liked making these a lot!


Plus another 21st birthday at Penn State. Sorry for the alcohol bottles. I know it's not my typical 'G' rated material, but I thought they were too cute not to share!


I also continue to do more and more golf cookies! This customer wanted a green/light green and red color scheme to match her party colors. Sorry the picture quality is crappy. Just took a quick snap with my phone camera before I packed them for shipping.


Okay, and here is my major big news. I'm so excited! Last week a photographer came out to my house to photo my cookies (and me too) for the December issue of the Town & Gown Magazine!!

John the photographer was so super cool! And what a great eye! I had a million plates, dishes, and centerpieces available for the photos. But he really wanted to keep it simple.

Photos of me decorating cookies...


And there were a few photos of me with a tray of cookies. 

What a fun time!! The magazine comes out the end of this month (November). Don't worry - there will be a blog update and photos and everything else that comes with having my cookies in a magazine! I'm just so thrilled.

Did I mention that the Christmas and Winter cookies will be hitting the site *this week*. Need a little sneak peek? Well, ok. Here you go ... just a peek!


This is from a NEW Christmas Cookie Assortment - Yummy and cute too. 

Have a sweet day!

P.S. Did I mention I made Mini-Cooper cookies. Not easy. But so fun! Can't wait to share those pictures soon!!

P.P.S Congratulations to Joe Paterno, best coach ever. Win #400 was amazing!  I took this photo just before the team ran out of the tunnel on Saturday. What a guy! What a game!


P.P.P.S. I am working on a fantastic, top-secret project for the final Penn State game of the season. I have been planning it out for some time and as the details come together, I get more and more excited!!
