They're breeding like rabbits - the Easter cookies on this site, that is! And the rabbit theme is even more prolific! (Only one of this week's top ten Easter cookies doesn't have one, or a part of one.) Turns out, bunnies can be cute as...
I love hot air balloons, but I really don't love heights! So my experience of them will always be from the ground, looking up and imagining how serene and beautiful it must be - that is, if you're not up there screaming and dribbling in...
As moderator of Cookie Connection , I have the unique vantage point of seeing every cookie photo that hits the site - and that's a lot! Most of the time, it's the season that dictates the dominant cookie subject matter . . . like right now, we've got...
Spring has not yet sprung (at least not where I live), but hopefully it's just around the corner! In anticipation of the arrival of spring, I decided to make a cookie wreath. Now, I've done my fair share of bird-related cookies, but when...
Well, hello there! I am thrilled and honored to be taking over these challenges from The Cookie Architect , who could not have done a more brilliant job in masterminding these challenges. And many thanks to Julia M. Usher for hosting this site...
Seeing as it was a 60-degree (Fahrenheit) day here in St. Louis, and we're on the verge of springing forward tonight in the US, I thought I'd get us all in the mood of the imminent season by spotlighting the week's most popular spring creations....

Cold weather got you down? Well, I'm about to warm you up with a wonderfully cheerful giveaway brought to you by the talented illustrator Claudine Hellmuth !* Thank you, Claudine! If you haven't yet had the pleasure of "meeting" Claudine's...
So sorry, no Saturday Spotlight AGAIN this week. I just had to finish up my recap of the recent Cookie Cruise while I could still get away with calling it "recent", and while my old memory still had a decent recollection of events....
OK, so I lied. Last week, I said the Saturday Spotlight would resume as usual this week, and I honestly thought it would at the time . . . But as I sat down to sift through the various photos on various hot lists, it dawned on me that I never did...
That's right! Burlap is still a hot trend in the home decorating and wedding industries. What we used to call "gunny" back in the day (because gunny sacks were made from this material) has sure come a long way in the last...
So back when I gave the Cookie Connection contributors' team the impossible task of selecting the winners in the 2014 Cookiers' Choice Awards , I also gave them the equally impossible exercise of choosing their two favorite cookie photos posted to...
This week I've got an unconventional and very exciting Saturday Spotlight for you - the announcement of the winners in the 2014 Cookiers' Choice Awards ! After a long couple of weeks of serious deliberation, our panel of esteemed Cookiers'...
