My cookie version of games that reindeer might play…

Polar Opposites Attract
This gingerbread ornament was my contribution to a project organized and installed by LoveBugCookies (per the annual holiday gingerbread cookie collaboration started years ago by TheCookieArchitect). A ‘tree’ filled gingerbread ornaments from around the US/world was placed at the Boulder Crest Retreat for Military and Veteran Wellness in DC. In keeping with my style, I created to a punny ornament that hopefully made our veterans pause for a moment and then smile. Thank you Beth. Thank you Rebecca. Thank you very much, veterans and military personnel.
Halloween Menu
I play with my food like I play with my words. Wrap (like a mummy) your head around these notions for breakfast, lunch, and dinner this Halloween. They’re the kind of ‘trick’ to which I like to treat myself.
Halloween Humor 2015
I was honored to participate in the GoBo Bake sale, sponsored and led byJill Wettstein of Funky Cookie Studio. She runs this fundraiser to honor Bo, a courageous young man for whom the GOBO Foundation was initiated; they bring hope to children with life-threatening medical conditions by funding research, supporting treatment, and helping their families during times of financial need.
The bake sale had a halloween or fall theme. Twist my arm… a chance to pull out the halloween humor??? Hope you find my treats to be no trick! 
Here’s to the Freakin’ Weekend!
Nerds celebrate too. Happy weekend, whatever your form of libation/liquid refreshment!
FATHERS DAY 2015
I know quite a few Dads who are utterly amazing. This is my quirky nod to that generalized word, no matter which way- a.MAZE.ing or a.MAIZE.ing- your find your guy to be.
‘EARS to you Dad!
Although my own chemical balance may be in question, my cookies are “elementally” correct. I found the original idea of using actual properties of the elements to describe the written topic at Newton and the Apple’s Etsy shop. Gemma has clever, meticulously researched greeting cards and more. Be sure to check it out!
For Sure, Architecture
There is a lot of fun banter that goes on via the Instagram feed. So it happened that the fabulous Rebecca Weld, aka the Cookie Architect, off-handedly inquired if a particular set of my cookies had a home. And how she was willing to volunteer hers if not. Those cookies were spoken for but the wheels started turning for a “structurally” sound solution. As ridiculous as it seems, there appears to be a pun/wordplay for every situation, including architecture. If you want to have your socks knocked off, click on the link above to visit Rebecca’s blog- and prepared to be dazzled! Her cookie art is one of the Seven Wonders (of the Cookie World).
