Hey there, my blog friends. :) It has been WAY TOO long.......can you believe three weeks?!

I haven't done many cookies since Valentines Day.....I needed a rest after doing so many for the holiday....plus I'm juggling several other things right now too.

However, a couple of weeks ago I DID do some cookies for a cookie exchange. Several cookie decorators on Flickr decided to swap cookies with each other. It was a blast! I couldn't post pics until now because it was a big surprise and we wanted to hold off on posting pics until everyone received their cookies.

So here are the cookies I made to share with the other cookie decorators......


I thought it quite appropriate to include my favorite quilt cookies. This was my first time doing them in pastels.....and they were so fun. It helped me dream of spring while I did these cookies. lol


Then I created some little cookie bakers. I thought I was being so original....but little did I know that Dawn (KneadACookie) was doing the same type design down to the heart shaped cookies. Too funny. :)





Come Friday, I'll be leaving for the Ukraine on a mission trip. I'll be gone for ten days. Hopefully I'll have time to photograph and post pics of the cookies I'm taking to the Ukraine. This week is going to be CRAZIE as I prepare......so I'm not sure I'll be able to indulge myself with blog time.

Once I return home, Easter is only 13 days away. Oh my! I'll have lots of catching up to do. Plus I have a big wedding cookie order that first week back.....so I'll be jumping on the saddle right away. I'm sure it will be great to get back to cookies. :)

If you'd like to follow my mission trip, I'm going to blog along the way...as long as I have internet access. Check out my CrazieCommitment blog.
