Diva

For this set even my dad got involved!  We had fun figuring out how to make the cookie shapes I needed out of the ones I have.  Not to mention I have a fair bit of cutter in storage in Maryland!  We had to improvise on the bow tie (for the gentlemen attending the party) and purse, which ended up being sunglasses and egg/rectangle cutters respectively.  I just adore the purses and birthday cake, I do really like zebra print. Maybe it's the life long love of horses?

Ethan aka super E!

My baby is turning one on Friday, and it's bittersweet.  I love to watch them grow but I remember the sleepless nights and it makes me sad. No not because he took the longest to sleep through the night and I was pretty sure I was going to loose my mind.  But each night that I sat holding and feeding him in the quiet night I know I will never get back.  I would rub my face on his soft hair, knowing it was a special time that I had all to myself.  Okay okay I'm sad now and that's not what parties are about! We held Ethan's first birthday here in Florida at grandma and grandpa's and it was great!  Lots of family and friends that normally we are too far away from us to celebrate with. It was a real treat. 



 Oh, and I made cookies =)





Why yes, I did make jelly fish....why not?

Happy birthday Ethan!

Ten years!


These cookies are for a wonderful salon and boutique in Sarasota Florida celebrating their ten year anniversary.  I really love how they turned out and heaven knows I love pink. A color I sadly don't get to use much with three boys, so this was a real treat.  I think the scissors are my favorites...not sure why but they crack me up =)  Congratulations Marmalade!
