Purse & make-up

This cake was for a young lady interested in make-up. The "cosmetics" are made of chocolate. Her favorite color is pink, but she wanted the purse to be red!!! (It's a woman's perogative!)

Astronaut on the Moon

Every year on July 20th, my mother reminds us all that they picked her birthday to walk on the moon. At last, the perfect birthday cake for her came to mind.

The decorated cookies were a big hit, too. (Mom turned the big "66" in case you were unsure of what the blue swirl cookie was about!!!!)

4th of July cookies

I had a "little helper" in the kitchen for our 4th of July cookies this year. My youngest (5 years old) wanted to help out. I think he did a great job. The cookies pictured at the top were inspired by those on the cover of the Martha Stewart magazine.
