Babies, babies, everywhere

Two of our dear friends had bouncing baby boys quite recently. What better way to send our congratulations, than with cookies?

Cookies are just festive.

For little Scott Jr, whose gender was a surprise and who has a nursery decorated all in turtles.

And for Chase, a set of boy-themed onesies.

Congratulations to the new mommies and daddies! Enjoy your new little bundles of joy.

And the cookies

Fun and festive, these cookies were the perfect way to wish a happy birthday to Turtle’s grandparents.

Soft and delicious, with just a hint of lemon in the icing.

On April 11, our dear friends, L&T, welcomed their little baby boy. Nico was rather impatient and made his grand entrance quite ahead of schedule, but he’s a champ and the whole family is doing so well.

We sent out these cookies to celebrate his debut.

Congratulations, L & T. You’re awesome parents. We hope you enjoy (both Nico AND the cookies). Lots of love!

Happy Father’s Day!

I had some extra cookie dough, so I made a selection of fun shapes for a special dad.

Of course, with a Miami twist

Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful dads out there!

27th Heaven

On November 4, 2009 the NY Yankees won their 27th World Series, in Game 6 at home against the Phillies.

My husband and I are long-time Yankees fans, and were also celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary. What a night!

Today, at 11am, the city of NY is hosting a ticker tape parade for the Champions. I couldn’t resist the chance to bake a little something to help celebrate.

Cutout cookies in the shape of jerseys, honoring team captain Derek Jeter, and WS MVP Hideki Matsui. They are almost too cute to eat.

Almost.

I also experimented with some new techniques this time, for a more precise cutout shape, and a new icing, which is just as good as my old one, and a little easier to use. Thumbs up for new techniques.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE YANKEES!
