One of the many amazing aspects of Cookie-A-Thon, organized by the wonderful Nancy Westfall, is that sponsors like me get free All-Access Passes to give away. Remember, Cookie-A-Thon (a four-day spree of online cookie decorating classes from November 2 to November 5) is normally free. However, if you want..
I can't believe we are saying goodbye to another month. The summer breezes already feel like a distant memory. I guess I should clarify that those summer breezes were in my neighborhood. Though I am...
I shared my first felt letter board cookie tutorial three years ago, and have made a few more since! Here’s a photo collage of my past projects plus some of their variations for reference and inspiration...
At the end of last week's Spotlight, contributor Lisa Foss mentioned feeling a heightened sense of urgency to get cracking on Halloween cookies after seeing the plethora of pumpkins in her local markets. At the time, I was feeling pretty chill about my Halloween decorating so...
Yay, I'm back! I know, I know, it's been a while since my last Kitchen Club kit, but since I'm now releasing kits just five times a year, they all come clustered around key cookie holidays, which tend to be toward the end of the year. Boring admin stuff aside (LOL), let's move on...
In 2018, I bought a pack of 100 sheets of wafer paper to make a teeny tiny greeting card for a Mother’s Day cookie. Since then, I’ve used wafer paper in one other project to make a couple of small oak leaves. Between the two projects, I’ve...

My husband and I have birthdays just three days apart. While we would be content to share the occasion, my children have always insisted that we...
In my area, summer still has plenty of juice left in it. The sun is shining, and the heat is plentiful. But schools are getting ready to start. And, in some of the big box stores...
Summer is still in full swing at my house. The lazy, hazy (and hot!) days have taken hold. Our stream of visitors has slowed so we're back to just me, my husband, and two badly behaved dogs. As a result, I'm not...
Hi, everyone! I've been so happy seeing the Cookie Connection home page in full bloom during the past two months that it feels a little bit sad to recap Watch-Learn-Create Challenge #54. As you probably know...
This month, I have a fun and super easy summer project that relies on basic wet-on-wet decorating (wet icing applied to wet icing) and 3-D cookie construction techniques. The end result will be a cute...
