Submitted for tumblr’s approval… My daughter’s Strawberry Pocky Shortcake Birthday Cake: 4 layers of strawberry-infused shortcake, with fresh strawberries and strawberry whipped cream between each layer, surrounded with strawberry Pocky and topped with chocolate-covered strawberries and strawberry “roses”. You only *wish* you were my kid! Happy 14th Birthday, Athena!
My family cookie tray, 2011 edition, is complete — the holidays can officially begin! We did 15 varieties this year, plus the candy mice. All homemade. Bring on the sugar coma!
An entire Gingerhead army! If FauxNews wants a war on Christmas, we’ll give it to them. We’ll hit them head on!!
Chocolate Gingerhead Boy. Not making bodies for them not only simplifies the cookie-making process, but it eliminates the temptation, when my sons help decorate, to make the cookies a little bit too anatomically correct for a mixed crowd. Win-win.
Purple pole beans are ON! Okay, so maybe I shouldn’t get so excited about produce, but look how pretty!
