What timing! I just got done leaving a comment on your cookies, Pebbles. Simply amazing! Being exposed to all this wonderful talent is what makes CC so special.

this weekend i have to go camping with my daughter's brownie troop. i'll come up with a theme and post it early next week. gosh april seems to be flying by....

Thanks kneadacookie! Have fun camping

oh i miss camping (my friend took my 2 kids and i-we didn't have the gear) my hubbie says the only way he'd go camping would be in one of those tricked out RV's complete with bigscreen lol

This sounds like fun! I hope I'll have enough time to make some!

well, i won't be seeing a fancy rv or big screen this weekend. at least for the weekend the rain has stopped here in michigan

Aaww...you must be getting what we got earlier this week. It is sunny today. To bad there a no camp site this way.

i feel like i want to do something summer or vacationy. saturday was perfect for camping...70 degrees and sunny. from sunday on it hasn't stopped raining.....blah! i so need some nice weather so i can kick the rug rats outside!!!!

Hi everyone! I have so enjoyed looking at all the great cookies. I am determined to submit a cookie every month. I have small bags of cookie dough in my freezer. Many times I don't have an order for cookies and don't want to make a large batch. Now I can just thaw out enough for a couple of cookies. I hope this keeps me motivated.

Freddy, thanks for starting this thread. My thoughts are with you and your son.

Pebbles, I love the boxcar children cookies. Loved the book so many years ago.

Knead, I am one of your biggest fans. You have a way with decorating a cookie!


"In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines,
lived twelve little girls in two straight lines
They left the house, at half past nine ...
The smallest one was Madeline."

Oh my gosh, McMama Madeline is perfect, you did a great job on her.

I made these together with my 11 yr old daughter for the books2eat competition here in Shanghai last month. Unfortunately she didn't win, because each person was only allowed to win one prize and I won the people's choice with my cake. I later found out from the head judge, that if my name hadn't been on the team entry, my daughter would have won the children's category. So much for being too honest. I only did the writing, she did all the rest. She is doing Shakespeare in school, so we decided on doing something with that

McMama - your Madeline is wonderful!

Ursula40 - your daughter should be proud - those books are great!

those are great cookies!! what inspiration thanks all for sharing

michellesArt, I love your Twilight series of cookies. I am a fan of the books and a fan of your cookies!

OK...so next month's cookie of the month theme will be Family Vacations.

today in michigan it was bright and sunny with 10 minutes of hail...yep, you heard me...hail!

Great! Family Vacations is a great theme for May!

Do you want me to start a new thread for May or should the first poster do it?

bonnie...if you have time, i'd love ya forever!!
everytime i say business is slow, i get slammed. i have so many orders right now.
thanks a million!!

No problem, I'll take care of it Do you want me to wait until May 1 or just go ahead now?

maybe we can wait until after this weekend?

It would be great to see a Mothers Day Cookie theme as well

ok, so i have one more post for this month.
i had to do a baby shower with a very hungry caterpillar theme. they didn't come out too bad

"not too bad?"

Are you kidding - they're great!

kneadacookie - your cookies are awesome! They look like they just jumped out of the book

Those are amazing!!!!

For some reason I can't see the new cookie pics hmmm frustrating. I have my cookie baked, I just have to get it decorated....maybe tomorrow! I will get it done, I will get it done, I will get it done! LOL......

quick update on Karson....all tests have come back negative, have no idea what he had but he has gained at least two pounds since we went the the hospital. We have a follow up on Thursday and I am hoping that after that we will be back to just normal well baby check ups. Thanks again for all the love and support!

This is such an exciting thread!! I will figure out how to post pics!!

Freddyfl isn't great to know so many care? We are definately family!

McMama Wow what a great idea to keep small bags of dough in the freezer! That's a good way to keep doing pics for this thread.

Now if we could just come up with a cookie icing for diabetics, so I could eat 'em!!!

As for the rest of our CC family what great pictures!!

freddy...OMG that is great news. makes you want to give your kids several extra kisses every night. here's to normal baby check ups!!!
