Friday Favorites: Valentine’s, Trader J’s, etc…🥗❤️🍪

First favorite: Valentine’s Day…it’s cheesy, sweet, pink, candy and cookie related, what’s not to love?! Late nite cookie making session.. We had our friends over to help decorate. I promise to share the royal icing recipe! It’s a good one… Dave and I didn’t get a picture on Valentine’s Day …so here’s an old one…

Art of 2021

2021 was a good year for art…for learning new things, practicing old things, adding more art and color to our house, and generally enjoying color/print/pattern, and my iPad drawing program to the fullest. Add in a few creative baking sessions and then ordering creative merch online, we had a smashing year / and I’m thankful…

Pumpkin cookies, pretty leaves, and just one Christmas tree 🍂🌲

Royal icing cookies! It’s been awhile. They are like childbirth…you can’t even think of making them again so soon…but it was time. The leaves have been so pretty this year!! God’s artistry on display for sure. this is in our back yard. Pumpkins are still on display… Warm apple cider… Homemade cranberry sauce with apples…

The Party!! 🎓🎈🎉

I made them a few weeks ago and froze them. I’m so thankful it worked! They tasted fresh. The weather was perfect!!! Lots of hanging around inside and out All in all it was a super fun party and so thankful for our family and friends who came to celebrate Wil with us.
