Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: A Healthy Dose of Thank You

If you've ever stayed in a hospital, visited a hospital, or watched a TV show about a hospital...you know doctors and nurses are some of the most hard-working men and women out there.  They deserve a little pick me up every once in a while, and we know the best way to say thank you is with cookies :)  

Sugar cookie Show-and-Tell: Summer Bakin'

I honestly can't believe the poor quality of the photos that Im sharing with you right now.  I spent about 2 weeks this summer baking almost 1700 cookies for 2 separate events for a local company - this is my 2nd year doing these events for NRUCFC and we increased the scope and amount this year by quite a few.  Luckily, I was better prepared this year with both preparation and packaging and didnt have to spend quite as many sleepless nights as last year ;)  A little peek at the boxes they gave to their youth council and what almost 850 cookies look like ready to go!  

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Oh the Places He'll Go!

Love, Love Loving the colors of the balloons on this custom set of Baby Shower cookies.  The hostess gave me a copy of the invitation for inspiration, and I loved it so much I didn't change a thing - those colors are so fun and vibrant - such a great change from the normal pastels. 

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Heart full of peace and love

Our own little ray of sunshine celebrated a birthday this month.  She designed her own cookies for her cupcake toppers, asking for hearts full of peace signs and rainbows.  Colorful just like her personality!  Happy Birthday Nelle, we love you!

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Dapper Little Man

Seriously, how adorable is this set of bow ties, mustaches and ties for a baby shower to welcome a dapper little man to the world?  Love the stripes and polkadots, so cute!!!

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Pokemon GO!

Pokemon.  Have they invaded your town yet?  If not, brace yourself, they are on their way ;)  Sweet C was turning 9 and wanted some Pokeballs for his sweet treat, we were happy to deliver!  

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Xbox console

I actually made this xbox console and game remotes last fall but completely forgot to post them!  The console is a store-bought brownie, don't tell anyone ;)  Used some cherry licorice for the wires and the remotes are all sugar cookie goodness.  

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Fiesta!

I know that when a fellow baker asks for cookies, I have to step up my game.  Ms. T has ordered from me several times for different events, and originally asked for margaritas for a fiesta themed party for a friend.  Ive been dying for a reason to do a piñata cookie and cactus cookie, so I asked If I could expand the scope - thankfully she was open to suggestions!  T makes the MOST AMAZING coconut macaroons, so I know my cookies not only must look good, but have to taste good too...hope they fit the bill!  Ole'!
