As promised, I am back today with a picture of the cookies that I made for the Holiday Boutique. To say that I "over baked" is an understatement. I DID sell quite a few, but ended up with a lot more than that. Don't get me wrong, there was plenty of interest and a lot of people picked up one of my cards, so I don't feel my time was wasted at all! It did not help my cause that the Preschool was having a bake sale of their own, but I knew that going in, so it was no big deal!
I am happy to say that the leftover cookies were not wasted. A good friend of Melissa's (thank you, Jackie!) offered to take them to Sunshine Acres, a local Children's Home...I hope they enjoyed them! Anyhoo, these are the designs that I made for the boutique...I wanted to make a variety that would appeal to all ages, without going too overboard...haha that!
Whatch'a think? I think my favorites were the ice cream sundaes and the basketball hoops...of course who doesn't love a cute snowman though, right?!
I am going to finish my Christmas decorating today if it is the last thing that I do...so far behind right now! Have a great day!

There's a skinny girl who lives inside of me that's screaming to get out...I can usually shut her up with cookies!
That Hello Kitty is adorable!!! Caleb had soccer that morning otherwise we would have been there and Caleb would have been begging for that Spiderman one...well he would have been begging for more than ONE!!
ReplyDeleteAwwww, the leftovers went to a children's home :) :)
ReplyDeleteLove that!! I will tell you too, from experience, that nursing homes have monthly birthday parties and the one I work with would be thrilled to get something like your cookies!
How'd you do with your blocks? I hope you made a significant dent.
Thank you for thinking of Sunshine Acres and linking to our website in your post! It was a nice surprise to receive such a sweet treat to pass out to the kids in our on-campus school. When they see the cookies they will be thrilled, I'm sure!
