Cookie Party!

Here are some photos from Taline's cookie party last weekend. I have to admit I was a little skeptical as to how five women would get into one kitchen and make five different cookies, but it was so fun and we made so many yummy cookies - EVERYONE's cookies turned out good, can you believe it? Mine were probably the worst. Whatever...



Amelia's pretty Russian Tea Cakes. But I say they are Mexican Wedding Cookies - seriously I think every culture must claim a cookie just like this... I think these were my favorites.


Taline's Sugar Cookies. We all helped decorate - aren't they breathtaking?


My Milk Chocolate Cookies, Sara's Snickerdoodles, and Nandita's Ginger Cookies. All very yummy! Aaron was partial to the Snickerdoodles. Snickerdoodle is a funny word, don't you think?

Turkey (Cupcake) Day


So here's my second attempt at cupcakes from the Hello Cupcake cookbook.  They look super cute, but it's a little disappointing when they start to fall apart a few hours later... hmmm.
