I love cookies. I blame all of my weight gain on them, yet I continue to welcome them into my mouth! I am a mother of two and love to coordinate theme parties of all sorts to wow not only my kids, but our guests. Being a teacher, I’d love to attribute the creativity that comes along with that to the creative flair I add to my parties.  I instantly became mesmerized by Julia’s YouTube tutorial on royal icing and decided I had to try baking and decorating cookies for two upcoming events. I’m inspired by all the beyond talented cookie artists out there! I hope to become 1/8 as good as all of you!
