I "made a connection" with Zara last June when I posted some Birtday cookies for my friend Silvia.

Leoni @Laegwen liked my cookies and she told me that her B-Day was in November. She was joking, but I started to imagine how those cookies could be. Then the joke went on and Zara in her comment asked where she should have signed up for her B-Day and actually her B-Day comes ten days before Leoni's. I liked this idea to make cookies for fellow cookiers.
We then kept chatting with Zara here on Cookie Connection the whole summer, together with Ryoko @Ryoko ~Cookie Ave. (Connections...).

Zara @carouselselsel makes beautiful cakes and her cookies match her cakes. So I thought I'd made a little cookie sweet table with cookies and a cake but then it was too crowded and the cake is not on the "cookie table" anymore. I decorated everything with the same flowers Zara made in one of her first entries here on Cookie Connection.

It is nice to bake for a fellow cookier. It is also nice as cookier to receive cookies, as I experienced last July when Ryoko made B-Day cookies for me!

And today Ryoko has some cookies for Zara as well.

Oh, girls! Thank you! This is really the SWEETEST thing! Someone I've never met, someone far, far away, but I feel so close...to do sth like this...I really treasure it, THANK YOU again!

Beautiful, Manu. I always love the bright, crisp colours that you use!

Thank you, Christine. These are not the colors expected for a birthday in fall, but I kept the idea I had in June, inspired by Zara's work always so colorful. We had a beautiful sunny day here today that made the colors even brighter in the pic!

I will Evelin for sure! ... and I should start to brainstorm a theme! 

It is so funny that I made a "connection" with you through this site as well and we live in the same area! ... And I am so happy to have met other fellows CC cookiers through you recently.

There's clouds and rain here today, so your colourful sunlit cookies are the perfect cure for a dreary fall day!

These are great Manu!! I just love the pretty flowers you painted onto the cake and name. The 3-D cookie with Zara's name is just awesome...so pretty Great work...

Thank you so much, Carol, glad you liked it. The flowers are Zara's design. I wanted to keep her colorful style and give the feeling this set belonged to her. The letters are again handcuts of my favourite font.

You don't interfere at all, Zara, we are talking about the cookies I made for you! I hope you had a nice day! I tried many fonts but this one was just perfect for your name and what I had in mind and it is my favourite font, the one I use as watermark. It is a pity I put to much pressure on the letter "Z" and the icing wasn't completely dried, so I made a little crack. This was the second one I made as I broke the first one yesterday, while trying to make it stand and I didn't have time anymore to make a new one this morning ....
