Well....this is a random post. :o)

First......here's another custom cut cookie I did for Valentines Day.

Next.....a cookie I'd rather not show you.....but I'm determined to be "real" and show the good & the bad on this blog.

I am convinced that it is nearly impossible to prevent red from bleeding....at least a little bit. My wonderful lacy heart cookie was ruined by nasty red bleeding. :(

Notice that some of the heart outline doesn't bleed because I stopped putting the ivory icing right next to the red. Note to self: Leave a fine line of separation between red and a very light color. ;)

Here's the bouquet I put together for someone special last week. I rarely get asked to do bouquets....but it's always nice to do them when I get the chance. :)

P.S. I do "fake" cookie pops. I tape the stick on the back of the bag and then tie the ribbon around the stick and bag at the bottom. This allows me to put ANY cookie on a stick for a bouquet.....no pre-planning.....and trust me, this bouquet was not pre-planned.

More Red Valentines cookies......this includes a red heart where I attempted a "lacy" look like I saw in a wonderful set from Angela (Sweet-Tooth-Fairy). More like this to come. :)

Next week, I'll be announcing my February blog give-away. Stay tuned. :)
