The Boys of Fall



Laura, one of our biggest fans, ordered football cookies for her son's end-of-year party via e-mail. I was baking acorns, so to make life easier, baked the footballs at the same time. I knew since both were brown, decorating would go a lot faster.

As we talked on the phone one day, Laura mentioned when she'd like to pick up her football bouquet. Bouquet? I never even thought to put them on sticks. Being the good sport she is, she said it didn't matter. Being determined to please one of my favorite customers, I knew I had to add sticks. I little icing to act like glue on the back did the trick, not too pleasing to the eye, but delicious! I told one of my kids it was white glue, it's non-toxic you know--edible. I still haven't told him that I was just kidding.

Fall Foliage




I think I made a million fall cookies this year. I'd say this fall collection is one of our biggest sellers. Thanks to everyone for their donations.

More baby!




Cake pops for sale? Not usually!! Since cake pops need to be made at the last minute, it is not something that I can say yes to very often. It depends on my work schedule. It did put a different spin on all the baby cookies that Audrey and I are making. Hope everyone at the shower enjoys them!

Something in the Water





Three baby girl orders in one week, there must be something in the water! Joan has a baby order too, including cake pops. I believe that the colors are green and brown--boy or girl? Guess we'll have to wait for her post to see.

Happpy Birthday Patty




When Myrta asked on Thursday if I could make a birthday bouquet for Monday, I told her totally impossible unless they could be fall colors as I was planning on starting my fall decorating. So these are what I came up with. A bouquet for the birthday girl and minis to share with guests.

Thanks for your donation to Operation Second Chance.
