Easter 2016

A late post is better than late cookies, at least that is what I keep telling myself. Do you ever get that feeling in life (at home, at work, or any other aspect) that you are on speeding bus? And the wheels aren't just coming off, two of them have perished in flames, and you are skidding sideways...and the bus just. won't. slow. down. No? No one? 

Well it's spring and work is nuts, travel is ludicrous, I have a new back injury I'm trying to figure out how to manage without going insane, and well, It feels like the runaway bus is on fire. Engulfed. But, spring becomes summer, and we all get our life back, just in time for the pretty weather to also turn to flames....okay that's enough, things are getting depressing.

Happy cookies = happy thoughts. Although these started and ended like our bus, I only took pictures of the ones that turned out right.....maybe if I EVER try the other design again, I'll share. Maybe. The upside is, some good cookies happened despite all things chaos, right?!




I hope your bus is slower than mine, enjoy spring while we have it. 😁

Happy Easter to all my Peeps!

Okay....after my ranting post at midnight last night, I'll admit, they are cuter today than they were then. A little Easter decor probably doesn't hurt either :)








Packed up and headed out to visit the family: 






Happy Easter :)

Easter Peeps

Okay. I have NEVER been so amped about a cookie plan and then been so let down/frustrated/sad with the outcome.  I was SO EXCITED to make these. They were supposed to be cute, pretty, and easy. What happened you ask?! Bad icing consistency, the single most important, yet difficult thing to get right. Being an amateur at this cookie thing, I get the consistency right about 60% of the time. I'll let you do the math on tonight's venture. *sigh* I am so bummed.

Inspiration (Sweet Sugar Belle)




My disappointing result:





It's been a long week and you can't win them all. Maybe tomorrow I can put them in Easter grass and get some pictures that will help their cause.
