Cookies for a Friend

I made these cookies for my friend Nora for her b-day...hope she doesn't check my blog before tomorrow! I tried to apply everything I learned in my cookie class last week. I think I did a fairly good job. My icing consistency needed a little help, but it tastes awesome! The cookie dough had too much flour for my taste so I may adjust that next time, but all in all it was my best effort yet!

Cookie Class

Some friends and I found a great deal on Living Social for a class at the All In One Bake Shop. We went this week and it was awesome! For $22 someone else made the cookies and icing and cleaned up after us! Quite the deal! We learned some new techniques and also found out that they rotate their cookie themes so we can take this class every couple of months...if we can find the deal!

My bikini didn't turn out so well.

I loved the palm tree. It looked really cute and Connor had no trouble devouring the entire thing.

I can't wait to practice on my own soon!

Edible Markers

I finally took a few minutes today to do the project that I've been thinking about for a few weeks! It was really very easy and literally only took a few minutes total.

I found these flat marshmallows for s'mores and thought they'd be perfect for drawing on. So I got out my edible markers and some stencils and in a matter of 5 minutes I had a cute little snack that inspired my kids to eat their dinner so they could have some marshmallows! Success all the way around! Maybe I'll start getting creative with marshmallows!

July 4th Brownies!

This wasn't quite as creative as I'd hoped it would be but here it is! Triple chocolate brownies with cinnamon cream cheese frosting and blueberries and raspberries for decoration. Unfortunately the baby didn't nap and that stole my creative time! But Happy 4th! Next week is a cookie class! Looking forward to that!
