Can I AW a little bit?

I never do this, but I'm very proud of myself and have no one to share it with! My husband's cousin and wife are due with their first baby in a couple of weeks. She goes crazy for my sugar cookies, and since we no longer live near them, I've felt bad that I can't provide the pregnant lady with lots of cookies. Since the baby is due very soon, I baked them some over the weekend to mail to them. I'm hoping they survive mailing okay!

It's been a while since I decorated cookies...I miss it!

Re: Can I AW a little bit?

  • These are super cute! That's really nice of you to do. Like you said, hope they make it through the mail, but if not, they'll still taste great I'm sure.
  • OMG those are so cute!!!! Have you taken decorating classes???  I would love to be able to do something like that!

  • Those are adorable!  She's going to love them!
  • Haha...okay, cookie fail.

    I emailed the picture to DH's Grandma (she loves to see pictures of what I make). She informed me that the mama-to-be is currently on bed rest with a restricted diet due to high blood pressure! Whoops. I just sent sugar cookies to a pregnant lady who shouldn't eat sweets. Awesome.

    Either way, she can freeze them and eat them after the baby is born.

    MrsZ--I have taken a couple of cake decorating classes, but no cookie ones. I'd be happy to show you sometime--I love decorating sugar cookies! For my wedding we did sugar cookie wedding cakes and I made/iced/decorated 1000 cookies.

  • Those look so cute!  You did a wonderful job.  I've done this a few times, but I'm still working on my skills.  I hope mine will be as good as yours!  Maybe we'll have to do a GTG with a decorating tutorial :)

    Awh I'm sure she'll love them anyway!  Like you said they can freeze them.

    I would love it if you could teach me!  Maybe if anyone else is interested we could make it a gtg?  My house isn't big but I have an open floorplan and several of us could gather round my kitchen island!  

    I'd be glad to buy the supplies!

  • That would be fun! I have a ton of supplies too, so we probably wouldn't need a whole lot. I'm no expert either, but it could be fun to have a little decorating party.

  • Oh those are too cute!!

    And I could definitely use some icing help.   I tried some cupcakes a few days ago and they were a major fail!
