An old high school friend contacted me (gotta love Facebook!) to make favors for a baby shower she was throwing.  Even though they knew it was a girl..I love that the main color was yellow and purple for the elephants, with a hint of pink.  These were shipped to Orange County.

Giddy-Up!

These cowboy cookies were for a 80th birthday party shipped to Yuma AZ.  I named this post "Giddy-Up" because this was a very last minute order that had to be Fed Exed 2 day mail...but they all got there on time and in one piece, whew..that was a hectic week! 

Baby Cakes

I made this cake for my friend Alissa who was hosting a baby shower.  The sex of the baby is unknown, so she went with a design to match the decor which was cute little animals.  Was having a hard time with my bow because it was so humid that day in Monterey...which leads to limpy fondant...but it managed to keep a decent shape.

Sunflower Bouquet

The teachers at Marshall Elementary are keeping me very busy with cookies for birthdays.  There was a request for a bouquet of sunflowers in a pot, so I made this with little tags on each one wishing the teacher a very happy birthday.

Special Celebration

My dear old (as in I have known her from high school) friend Devry asked me to make some cookies for her Mom and Dad's Birthdays/Anniversary Party.  Her Dad is a Retired Marine, and her Mom is from Holland, and they were celebrating their 39th Wedding Anniversary and both of their birthdays.  So I made the Marine Uniform for her Dad, the Dutch Tulips for her Mom, and the wedding cake to celebrate their Anniversary..so wish I could have hand delivered them...love that family!!

Teacher Birthday

I made these Chalkboard cookies for the 2nd grade teachers at Bradley's school to give to a fellow teacher who's birthday was the first day of school.

Mom's Wedding Cake

So, few people can say they made their own Mom's wedding cake...but I can!  The nuptuals took place a few months ago.  I drove the half-finished cake down to southern Orange County, and finished it once I got there.  It was a little stressfull, but well worth it!  I used a stencil technique on top of Fondant.

I also made diamond ring cookie favors for the reception.
