My Portfolio

Got your attention? No, I do not have one. What I do have is a knack for making sugar cookies. And a love of decorating them. Mark told me some time ago to snap some pictures to keep around for "just in case." I try to remember to take some pictures of cookies I do. Who knows. Maybe one day Three Little Monkeys will be known.

I will say that I am getting more adventurous. I can make cookies on a stick.

I can make bite size cookies. These are about the size of a fifty cent piece or so.

My newest venture is flavored icing. I need to gather some other flavored extracts. It makes sense that a coffee cookie would have a bit of a coffee taste. Or a bright yellow cookie taste a bit like lemon. Branching out....

I've seen pictures of your cookies before, but I still say WOW!!!

Those are awesome. you should definitely have a little side business doing custom orders if you can swing it. I'd buy cookies from you.

We love to cook, and do a lot of baking, but it's not very pretty usually. I used to try to make all kinds of "pretty" foods - cheesecake easter baskets, pretty jello molds - but with the little ones, I'm lucky if I just get food made!

I'm always impressed by your cookies when you show pictures. If I ever had an occasion for it, I would definitely buy them!

Sometimes There Are No Words

Last night I met a new friend. Let me preface this by saying I have made exactly ONE new friend in the last ten years. This makes number two. My Babycenter and Blogging friend Amanda , was having a conference in KC. We made plans to meet up. I felt a bit odd. Here I was making plans to meet someone I only knew from the Net. But Mark thought it was perfectly great and even said for me to stay out as long as I wanted. He said it was not as if I was meeting up with someone I saw often. Stay out and talk and have fun. So I did. I made plans to meet with Amanda. I knew we had a lot in common. Both from the board and from reading her blog. I knew she was someone who if she lived closer to me we could hang out. But I was a bit apprehensive. Here was someone who only knew me through the computer. So many what if's , right? Mark was actually the one who said I should meet with her, if only for a little while. So, I picked Amanda up at her hotel and off we went to Fooleries. Great place to ...

Why Choose It?

Judy posted a comment about being jealous at two weekends away from the kids. About how she figured it would be a long time before she got that chance. I have to admit, I thought better her than me to have the new baby. After our two weekends away and Mark joking that it was his ploy to convince me to not have anymore, I have to say.....I think it worked. After thinking about it and being able to get away so easily because the kids are bigger, I could not help but think, why go back and do it all again? If you had a choice between going out of town for the weekend or being stuck, tied down to a newborn who was feeding from your breasts every two hours and waking every three ,which would you choose? To which one might say why ever have kids at all.....fine. I have TWO. I have done it TWICE. Not only that, but for anyone who cares about it, I have one of each. One is almost seven, the other almost three. Granted Davis is not potty trained yet, but he does change his own diaper sometimes...
