Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Green Hedges Celebration!

Green Hedges is a local private school tucked away in one of my favorite Vienna neighborhoods. They are celebrating a huge milestone this year - 75 years - and I was thrilled to provide the favors for their gala event. It is so personally gratifying to be referred by past clients - especially for events in our own 'hood.  We loved making these, and wish Green Hedges many more successful years!

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Match Point!

I always wanted to learn to play tennis, but these wimpy arms are only good for rolling dough.  The host came up with this adorable theme for a tennis tournament at a local Club - there was a platter to munch on at the after-party where the players all received these personalized treats.  If you ask me these were a Grand Slam :)

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Bras for BRAWS

There is a fantastic local charity in Vienna called BRAWS that works to provide services to women in  need in the form of feminine hygiene products, bras and undergarments - some of the most expensive and needed items in our shelters and local community outreach programs.  This week BRAWS held their big fundraiser, and we were thrilled to provide some sweets for the event.  Love the hard work this group is putting in, and happy to take part.  Im sure I've said "these are my favorite" a gazillion times here, but these move to the top of the list.  I wish my OWN bras and undies looked this nice!

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Ballers

Basketball Season was here.  We know this because we made a lot of Basketball cookies ;)

Sugar-Cookie Show-and Tell: American Ninja Champion!

We adore American Ninja warrior around here. My kids routinely use door frames as climbing apparatus, and we are contemplating turning out backyard into an obstacle course.  So I was super excited when I got a request for medals for an American Ninja Warrior themed Birthday party.

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Wedding Mini Bliss

You know I was thrilled to put together some wedding minis...itty bitty cakes and rings?  LOVE.

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Double Digits

My sweet cousin hit the big 10 this week.  She's lovely and smart and all of those things you hope your kids grow up to be.  Happy Birthday Ms. M!

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Raiders Hockey

I couldn't think of a catchy hockey reference for the title because I know nothing about hockey. My Canadian husband just cringed.  But I was thrilled to be referred to a local mom who was looking for last minute cookie favors for her team.  Im forever grateful for this wonderful Vienna community that continues to support this little local baking business.  I matched the team logo, and just like that my knowledge of hockey grew exponentially.  :)

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Gamer Blamer

When its your own kid requesting a specific type of treat for their birthday, the results aren't always pretty, but at least you get a big hug from the birthday boy.  Deuce turned 9.  NINE!  I can't quite wrap my head around that. I still think of him as the blues clues obsessed little cutie that sang with wild abandon anytime he saw a paw print.  He likes video games now (sigh), so we celebrated with a game truck with all of his buddies.  He designed this cake and cookie combo, and while its not the best looking cake around, it will be one of my favorites.  All the kids took home a game remote cookie, and I'm are parents are still cursing me for their black teeth!  Happy Birthday Buddy.

Sugar Cookie Show-and-Tell: Zap! Bam! Pow! Super Hero Style

Minis minis minis all day looooong.  So happy when clients are open to suggestion - I seem to be recommending minis more often these days, especially for little people celebrations - kids like bite sized (and less crumbs the better amiright?) This little guy loves all things SUPER Hero, so we delivered with some minis in his fav designs...BAM!
