Hello.....Kitty's!

Three things can be said about Hello Kitty.  #1, she is timeless...she has been around since prehistoric ages I was a teenager.  #2, she is ageless...she still looks the same after 38 years (now who can say that with a straight face).  And #3...girls of all ages seem to love her!

Ironically, I had two orders at the same time for Hello Kitty cookies!  One order was for a thirteen year old...the other for someone that was turning 30!


At Mom's request, we did a couple of "nerdy" kitty's with glasses!  Whatch'a think?

And equally important...the gift box for Lisa!



Ya gotta love the "cat"!  Enjoy your cookies, girls!!

Shall we address the pretty new "elephant" in the room?

And by elephant, I mean my beautiful blog makeover!

I couldn't be happier! If you popped in on Friday you probably noticed that things were different but all was not quite right...that was my transition stage! Of course "I" can't take any credit it for the design at all. I worked with a wonderful ETSY seller called SolidArtCollective, and can say without doubt that it was one of my best ETSY experiences, ever!  dRE (yep, that's what she goes by) worked with me tirelessly through every step, until I was completely happy with the outcome.  I now have an awesome new "logo" and blog header as well as, a new business card, personalized cookie labels and even a little "Grab my Button", right over there ------->.  Go ahead, grab it, I'll wait while you do!

Everything is still here, but you just have to look up.  I cleaned up my sidebar and put most everything except my cookie "Labels" in the menu bar above.  

Would love to know what you think of the new "me"...and by me, I mean my new blog!

I also worked on a few Valentine's Day cookies.  You might remember the Brush Embroidery cookies that I did here, and since I love the look, I decided to do it on some hearts!  This design, while a little time consuming, is really quite simple to do.  No really, it is!



See, another cool thing about my new blog...I can make the pictures much bigger than before!  So whatch'a think?  As you can see, there was a "miss" amongst the hits...I tried it with black icing that I already had in a piping bag...the consistency was perfect for piping, but NOT for this technique.  It kind of resemble a flower that someone had stepped on...not good.

I have got tons going on so be sure to stop by again soon!  Till then...happy baking~

Ooh la la!

Can I just tell you how freakin' fun these were to make? I did not have this cookie cutter last Valentine's Day, and I could not wait for it to come back around this year so that I could make up these super cute corsets! If your hubby loves sexy lingerie (and what guy doesn't?) AND he loves cookies...why not give him a two-fer?!


Who wouldn't want to have the shape that fits these...I can tell you that I did not have a waist that small when I came out of the womb!  How cute would these be for a bachelorette party or even a bridal shower?!  Seriously people, I need someone to order these so that I have an excuse to make some more!

I have lots of other projects in the making...a furniture makeover reveal, new "blocks" and of course more Valentine's Day cookies...stay tuned!

Till then...happy baking~
