Cookie cutters I made today. the New England Patriot for me and the BYU logo for a Friend. I still need to work on the Oval its not ovally (is that right..ovally) enough for me. The ends need to be a little thinner.

These cookies were for a Young Women's Program at our church last night. The program was really great! The cookies did not come out as good as I hoped. The tendinitis in my wrist acted up. I had a hard time doing the lettering. Most of the cookies were gone in seconds so what really matters is that they tasted good. This logo doesn't show it but the sun is off center which makes some of the "rays" of the sun shorter in some places. Sorry the logo did not copy into my blog:(

I needed a shark cookie cutter. So I made one. I really like making my own cookie cutters. I can never find ones that I need. To make a cutter usually takes about an hour. I now have a good collection of them.

I haven't had a lot of cookies to make over the past month. So I was very excited to finally get back into baking and decorating.

Just got a new computer. Now I can down load pictures so much easier than before. Love it! Thanks for this picture Kent and April.

I forgot about these Santa's. I needed to get some done quickly for Jim. I actually kind of like them. Next time I think I will use jimmies or nonpareils for the hat and pompom. they need some dimention.

So.... I've been on vacation from cookies these past 3 weeks. Mostly because I wanted to be and I didn't have any cookie orders. These Mitten cookies I made (with Katie's help) for the Primary children at church. It was fun to do these with katie she is getting good at decorating. My brother Braden and his family came over and we decorated Gingerbread houses which was a lot of fun, messy but fun!
