Spreading Some Christmas Cheer

I'm back to blogging....again.

It's been so long since I last posted anything, I'm embarassed to say....I ALMOST FORGOT how to log in and write a post!!!

I think my blog must be saying.....who the heck is this!!!!

I'm getting the hang of though.

So several hundreds of dozens of cookies since that last post.......(reason why I haven't been posting)  brings me to today's post.  I won't even try to catch you guys up to what all's been happening cookiewise since then.  Instead, I'd like to ask you, my faithful followers....(if there are any of you left!)....to help me to help spread a little Christmas cheer to some of our less fortunate brothers and sisters.

God has so abundantly blessed me this year with an amazingly successful business that I am so passionate about, and I want to share my blessings with those in need.....those who have fallen on hard times.....those who are quite deserving of a little Christmas cheer.

What, you may be asking, do I need of you?  I'm asking for your help to nominate some deserving individual/family, who is in need this Christmas season, to be the recipient of a gift of one of my Christmas cookie collections. 

I will randomly select 5 deserving people/families from comments left here on my blog, and on my facebook page, to receive a gift of my Christmas cookies.  Leave me a comment, telling me why your special nominee is deserving of some special cheer this Christmas.

I will accept nominees until midnight, CST, on December 15. 

In your comment, please provide your email address so that I can notify you if your nominee is the winner.  Cookies will be shipped to arrive prior to Christmas directly to winning nominees if I am providred with a shipping address.  If the address is unknown, then they will ship to you, so that you can present them to the winner yourself.

Thank you for helping me to help make someone's Christmas a little bit sweeter.

My Blog Facelift and More Christmas Cookies!

In keeping with the newness of the 'New Year', I decided my blog needed a facelift of sorts, or a freshening up, a newness, like the new year.  This is the result!  How do you like????  I enlisted the help of a very talented graphic designer that I found on Etsy.  Her name is Julie Farber of 'Deluxe Designs'.  This is the link to her Etsy store:

If you find yourself in need of someone to do graphic design for you, she's your gal!

Julie is professional, talented, communicative, extremely quick, and most importantly...listens to what you want, keeps at it until it's just like you want, and is sooo easy to work with!  Go check her out!

  Anyway, here are more personalized gingerbread people and some 'girly, dog, Christmas' cookies...... Yep, that was the request, 'girly, dog, Christmas' cookies.

Custom Gingerbread People

A dear friend asked me to make these for some special people in her life.  Each gingerbread man/lady/child was personalized for the individual for whom it was made.
