Saturday Spotlight: Top 10 Flower/Plant Cookies

 

As tough as the coronavirus has been, there have been some silver linings to being home with more than the usual time on my hands! One of the biggest pluses has been tending to my garden, which, thanks to unseasonably cool, wet weather and a little good luck, has never looked better. These photos are from last week and the week before. Once the roses, shasta daisies, and clematis go, there are day lilies, hydrangea, crepe myrtle, and more daisies on the way! Yay!

Okay, back to cookies! Well, sort of . . . in order to keep my quarantine joy going, I've decided to honor the top ten cookies in our "Flower/Plant" clip set this week. They are all as glorious as the real thing - well, more so, because they can also be eaten! Without further ado (or photos of my garden ), here are the honorees on this week's hot list*, some of which may seem familiar because they've been featured before . . .

That's all for this week! Please stop to smell the roses while you still have more than the usual time on your hands! 😘

* As a reminder, a word about how the rankings are determined: The rankings are not at all subjective. In fact, they are determined essentially by you, our members, and the activity (number of views, likes, and comments) you've bestowed on each photo. The site uses a top-secret algorithm that weighs these various factors to determine which photos are trending most quickly (i.e., are the "hottest") over specified periods of time. As such, the hot list at the time of this announcement may look a little different a few hours or a day from now as more photos are added to the site.

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.

All photos shown here are the courtesy (and copyright) of the designers listed.

To check out our other hot lists, at any time of day, visit our Hot Spot, also found in the site's main navigation line.
