What a delight it was to return from vacation - nearly two weeks without a cookie in sight - to discover the many magnificent creations posted here on Cookie Connection in that short time! You certainly eased my cookie withdrawal with your ingenuity and skill!
Stonington, Maine, USA, site of Julia's vacation. Nary a cookie in sight, though plenty of water and lobster boats!
Your work is also a constant reminder that just about anything can be cookie-fied! With everything from shiny snails and Japanese landscapes to a remarkably realistic 3-D wedding ring box, this week's hot list* is testament to the diversity that can be cooked up with just a little dough and royal icing. Congrats, everyone!

Have a great rest of the weekend and next week. And stay tuned for a glut of tutorials and articles soon to be posted to the site - I'm slowly working through my editing backlog that accumulated while enjoying that dreamy Maine seascape last week! 
So that no one has an unfair advantage in making it onto a hot list, the algorithm is secret even to site administrators. Only our platform developers know the code, which has been exhaustively tested by those developers and Cookie Connection staff.
