Cookbook

Happy Monday! Good Morning, how is everyone doing? It's been awhile since I've posted. I have yet to buy a new computer so it takes so much of my time to upload photo I've just avoided it all together. (sad face). Two years ago I started this recipe/cookbook for my daughter. I finally finished it for her 30th birthday. I bought the kit from Button Farm Club. They sell an assortment of  kits that include everything you need for your books. 

This is the front of the book. Her name
is on the rolling pin on the bottom of the
book. 

Do you see the metal mixer and
measuring cup? They are so adorable. 


This is the inside of the book. Left side has a pocket,
middle has the water fall, and right side has a pocket
with two inserted books. 



Here is the first flap with a recipe card. 


Two booklets for recipes.



Side of the cook book. 
Thank you all for stopping by! I am hoping to start posting on a regular basis again. Have a super great day!! God Bless!

Cookie exchange

Happy New Year! Hope you all enjoyed your holidays and had a wonderful New Year. I was able to upload some pictures, still fighting with my computer and my camera. Today I am sharing pictures from a cookie exchange attended. I RSVP'd and then found out they were giving prizes for best cookies, best packaged, most creative...etc....OH NO the pressure is on!!! I decided to make Lemon snowball cookies and decorate them with a snowman package. 
Each package had to have 6 cookies for 10 people
and a doz to serve at the party. 

I used a Tim Holtz die cut for the mittens and hat.
The scarf is felt and the face is a CTMH stamp. 

A prize was given for best displayed cookies.
This is mine.  

Our brunch....MMMMM good!

We had to taste each cookie and vote
for the best cookie for different categories. 

One of the ladies made Biscochitos, she
put them in luminara bags including a
lighted battery operated candle.

These were beautiful. One of the ladies
painted a different picture on each of her
cookie containers and displayed as a
Christmas Tree....WOW! Such talent!




A cute homemade ornament made
by the hostess. 
This is my neighbor Heather...She won a
prize...Way to go Heather!!! She made the
best chewy Ginger Snap cookies. 
Thanks for letting me share my cookie exchange. It was so much fun!! Happy New Year!
