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!

And Just Like That.....

I made the fatal mistake of reading reviews and articles before watching a single episode of the show.  I knew full well I would watch every episode regardless.  I read anyway.  Spoilers? Not bothered.   Let me give some back story here.   At 17/18 my dream had been to go to a big city (Chicago was my thinking at the time), get my degree in journalism/editing/publishing and go work at a big time magazine.  Keep in mind we are talking about the mid 90's here so the idea that magazines would cease to be relevant was not even on my radar.  I had been editor of my high school yearbook and unbeknownst to me at the time, we were actually doing the yearbook by coding and would get printouts hoping we had coded copy correctly.  I just typed the copy I was supposed to type with the weird little codes that had been given to me on a piece of paper.  I would later discover this was actually HTML code we were doing.  Who knew?  This fu...

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...
