4th of July

These cookies are headed to Illinois to help celebrate the 4th of July as well as welcome a new member to the family. Thanks Elaine, enjoy your new granddaughter!

Enjoy!

Stars and Stripes for the 4th

Typically I like two weeks’ notice for my cookies, it gives me time to prepare myself, think and brainstorm how exactly I am going to accomplish them, and if need be it gives me plenty of time to do a sample or test run so that I am not frustrating myself and family because my cookies aren't what I think they should be.

So when Sarah sent me a message asking if she could get cookies for today on Wednesday, it threw me for a loop. I knew I would be making cookies for a 50th birthday surprise so having cookies wasn't going to be an issue, the issue was going to be getting my creative juices flowing on stars and stripes. Thank goodness I made some flags and stars for Memorial Day, so I "knew" what I was in for.

So here they are in all their glory...they were picked up this morning and are headed to Minnesota for a birthday surprise.

Thanks Sarah!

Enjoy!
