Every once in awhile, there comes a time where I have to throw in a mushy serious post. I mean it can't always be those awesome puns and sprinkles you just love from me can it? Sometimes we have to get right down into life, as I see it. Yes, believe it or not my thoughts do expand past cookies and cakes (generally straight to the pile of dishes I've made). Mother's Day is definatly one of those ... [ read more... ]

Starwars Galaxy Bark
I've never really been a girl to reason with sprinkles...consider me converted. It's that day of year where all the Star Wars fans come out to play. I'll be honest, I am not exactly one of those people. Maybe that's because the only Star Wars film I've ever seen was last year and I totally didn't get it. But I did see that hilarious video of the mama with the Chewbacca mask, and I'm pretty sure ... [ read more... ]

Pencil Cookies – You’re On Point!
Teacher's appreciation day (May 9th, 2017) is just a few days away, so I better get right to the point. I mean really there's no point in beating around the bush, teachers are amazing. They are the awesomesauce people of the world, practically unicorns. I'm mean think about it, I can hardly handle my four kiddos and they wrangle like 24 every single day. Without wine, I have a good point don't you ... [ read more... ]

Cookie Tulip Fields
Sometimes a story is told better backwards, so let's try that today and work our way from the end. I had just completed these tulip cookies and I wanted to gift some to our German neighbors. We haven't really gotten to know them yet, as they only know a little English and our German is well barely there. Cookies, well, they are understood in every language. And you don't exactly give cookies ... [ read more... ]

This last week has been a whirlwind of emotions as I was able to watch you guys share your excitement while receiving your books over social media.

O-fish-ally Number 1 Dad Cupcakes!
I learned a little lesson this week, like no matter what mom says, sometimes there really aren't many more fish in the sea. Sometimes there are only six fish in the sea. Particularly, six little cupcake fish who found their time here in the ocean with chocolate bubbles would last no longer then one minute (give or take a few moments). Had I know this...maybe I would have snapped the camera a ... [ read more... ]

RAWR-some Father’s Day Cookies
You know what is totally out of my league? Boy stuff. Yep, super heroes...monsters...trucks...dirt...and dinosaurs. All boy stuff, all out of my league. Recently this has become more and more obvious as my girls grow older. While I do have two brothers growing up one was ten years older then me and one was ten years younger then me so I really wasn't ever aware of the "boy stuff" they were into. ... [ read more... ]
