Anniversary Countdown – 10 Days to Go!

My first anniversary with my wonderful husband is just around the corner and I can't believe it has already been a year! As weddings are the ultimate party, I figured it fitting to share some of our party details here. But since there are just too many details involved to share in one post, I'll be counting down to the big day all over again! For day one, I'll start at the beginning. Here's a ... Read the Post

Star Wars Rebel Cookies and Blue Milk Recipe

In honor of the premiere of the new TV show Star Wars Rebels, I made a special treat that is out of this world…maybe even out of this galaxy. My husband is a HUGE Star Wars nerd fan and he is super excited for this series. Filling in time between the original Star Wars trilogy and the prequels, Rebels will tell the tale of the origin of the Rebel Alliance in response to the oppressive Galactic ... Read the Post

Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown Cookies for Go Bo Bake Sale

I am a huge fan of the Peanuts, pumpkins and all things Halloween, so it should come as no surprise that "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" tops the list as one of my favorite movies. I have it on VHS, Blu-Ray and an awesome iPad version of the book. If this is already sounding weird, I should probably refrain from mentioning that I also spent a couple of years dancing as Peanuts character at ...

Orangutan Cookies

Earlier this week I told you about the awesome 3-D printed cookie cutters from Printsicle.  Among the collection was an adorable orangutan cookie cutter. I have a couple of big ideas ahead for this cookie cutter, but I decided to start with the orangutans in their purist form, enjoying their festive jungle settings. I just love orangutans, it's going to be hard to eat these guys, I'm kind of ... Read the Post

Guinea Pig Cookies for a Pignic!

One of the many weird things you will learn about me here is my fascination with odd looking animals. One such creature is the Guinea Pig. Since my childhood I have wanted to have my very own squeaking, jellybean of a pet, and for Valentine's Day, my husband (who knows me very well) got me my very own. It turns out however, that you cannot have just one, or at least you shouldn't and in a very odd ... Read the Post

Kosher Dylan Pickle Cookies

A couple of weeks ago I received an invite to my to my cousin's baby's "Bris-ket." What's a bris-ket you might ask? /bris-ket/: a post hospital Bris where the only meat being cut is a corned beef sandwich. For those of you unfamiliar with a Bris, it's the Jewish ceremony for a circumcision. The "snip of the tip" if you will. As soon as a I heard that a deli-filled "bris-ket" was ... Read the Post

Muttville Sugar Cookies – Senior Citizen Day, Pugs and More

In my non-cookie baking life, I write for and run a website about taking care of and living life with dogs and another dedicated to animal rescue of all kinds. While one might not think there is much reason for dogs, baked goods and parties to overlap, there are actually quite a few instances where it does. Some of my original party blogs are actually on the dog site and are based around ... Read the Post
