Okay… finally, the post from last weekend. My camera never did wake up by the way. But I did manage to get all the photos off using a friend’s card reader. Yay! Unfortunately, no built in card readers on my printer or computer… Boo!
And, I would have posted this last night, but I spent the evening at Pioneer Woman’s book signing in Atlanta. Fun! Fun! More on that soon. Thankfully, I did have a working camera with me for that. A brand new Canon Digital Rebel XSi that I borrowed. It’s nice having generous friends. But, I kinda wish I hadn’t started using it. I might not be able to give it back. Bigger screen, More megapixels. And I’ve convinced myself the photo quality is far superior. It is. I know it is. Maybe my camera will be unfixable. Is that a word?
Anyway, here’s the goods or goodies from last weekend.
It’s coming up on Christmas, so I wanted to make some decorated sugar cookies. But I didn’t really want to make traditional Christmas shapes. So instead, I used a cute little cupcake cutter I recently bought. I also went with a less than traditional color scheme and chocolate sugar cookies to help make the colors pop.
I love sugar cookies. Too bad I love them more than they love me. I’m still trying to perfect my piping. I will not give up. I will have non-lumpy lines one day.
These were two of the better ones.
These … not so much. But squint and they’ll look better.
See …… Okay, I’m kidding. I kid. These are the good ones. Well, the better ones anyway.
It helps to plan ahead when you work with royal icing. Draw out the colors you want for borders and the colors you want to fill with in advance.
The cookie recipe is from the book, Cookie Craft. Get a copy if you have any desire to learn how to make these kind of decorated cookies. It’s jam-packed with tips and tricks.
Or maybe you’ll win this.
Yes, the original Cookie Craft came out with a mini Cookie Craft Christmas book.
Also with recipes, ideas, and tips. It’s very cute. And small, which you know I like.
You’ll also get this cute 2-piece cupcake cookie cutter set. Love it!
And some cupcake stencils. You can use these on cookies, too.
A cupcake-shaped cake tester. This totally unnecessary utensil was too cute to pass up.
And so were these mini spatulas. I bought all the goodies (except for the cookie book I picked up at the bookstore) from Crate & Barrel if you want to look them up. I like finding cute things. Hope you like them, too.
And it all comes stuffed in a sparkly stocking.
Enter to win it all.

And everyone else that entered. Thank you for sharing your Christmas wishes. I’ve smiled and cried multiple times reading through them. Some really important ones out there. I hope you get them granted. Hugs to you all.
I have a Kitchen Aid mixer on my wish list.
My parents are coming down for Christmas and actually staying through Christmas Day, so that is a present in and of itself for me. =)
I just had a newborn, so I am hoping for a baby that sleeps through the night by Christmas- is that too much to ask?
I know I will not get a KA mixer because it is too expensive, so what I really want is that giant cupcake cake pan! (and this gift pack, of course) =)
silpats!
I just want a little break from work…to spend time with my lil one, hubby, family and BAKE :)
I want to see our daughter flip out when she sees that Santa finally brought her Buzz and Woody after months and months and months of not-so-patiently waiting. And then we’ll host our family for a feast. . . hopefully with those cute cupcake cookies on the buffet!
Beautiful cookies!! I am content this christmas – I’d love to spend lots of time with the family! :)
Good job on the cookies. Sorry to hear about your camera. I’m looking at cameras this year too, but nothing as nice as the one you linked us to. Wow.
My wish for Christmas would be for someone to pay off all my credit cards so that my husband could stop worrying about paying the bills.
Really time with family and to enjoy what Christmas is really all about.

(I love my Canon Rebel xsi – I just need to learn exactly how to use it. I always get confused with the manual settings, I try but can’t always figure it out.) Maybe you could give some tips and tricks. You pictures are always amazing. :)

I want a Hello Kitty Fuji Instax Mini from Japan complete with Hello Kitty printed film sheets. Is that too much to ask? I don’t think so. :)
LOVE THIS GIVEAWAY.
I’m looking forward to spending time with my family, for sure. As far as gifts go, though, my biggest wish this year is a sewing machine!
Nothing material — just a way to have more time to do everything I want.
I would like a new mixer and a new stove for Christmas, mine are both over 13 years old and I do alot I mean a lot of cooking and baking! So Santa please bring me one or both. But Bakerella’s stocking would be good.
I really just can’t wait to be home for the holidays – with the whole family together again under one roof, eating good food, baking up treats, catching up with old friends, and taking pictures with my new canon rebel I just got as an early birthday present!
you do the best giveaways! i would so love to win this!
I want more dinner plates because my husband dropped two! :)
Merry Christmas!
All I want for Christmas is my babies two front teeth :) Seriously, a night of sleep would top my cupcake!
Love the cookies BTW…Sugar cookies hate me……I swear, they seem so simple, but the batter usually ends up in the trash…….MERRY Baking :)
This is entirely too precious!!!!!
As for what I want for Christmas… Honestly… I really want to find out a few days before that we’re expecting :-) We’ve been trying, and I would love to know on Christmas morning that it was official… not sure it will happen though…
And in that case, I’d like a maid to come clean my house once a month for a year…
I asked for a gym membership for Christmas, cuz all i do is bake!!! lol… ahh i hope i win i want thos spatulas lol

I would like for my kids to really have a great holiday season and in my dreams I would love a sparkly necklace that I saw at a jewelry store. But with that, I’ll probably dream myself into next year!
I want silicone pastry brushes for Christmas, so my cakes stop having hair in them. o_O
What I want for Christmas is to get back to being crafty…it makes me a better person ; )
I want things to slow down! I’m riding the crazy train here and I want to get off!!
I live in a college dorm and there is no real kitchen for me to use. For Christmas, I just want a day of baking with my mom where we make all of our Christmas favorites and then deliver them to our friends and family! Love the adorable goodies! Hopefully this one is the lucky comment!! :)
ok, I want all kinds of baking stuff this year – a timer that can hold 2 different times with a number pad to type in and new cookie sheets, ramekins that are 8-11 oz for chicken pot pies, a new hair dryer, a microplane, a garlic press that peels the garlic for me while pressing, Sue Grafton’s “U is for Undercover”, a bigger kitchen (in my dreams), iTunes gift card oh and a new wardrobe!! =)
I am always trying to perfect my sugar cookie decorating skills. Looks like you have yours down pat.
So, so SO in love with your blog.
For Christmas I want to spend lots of time loving on my family and my Mom’s awesome Christmas desserts.
Kate
Happy and healthy family! Maybe a new corvette !
I would really like this horrible Iowa blizzard to stop! And a pony (no, really. I have 2 horses that are too big for me!)
All I want this year is to spend an AMAZING Christmas with my family! Anything else is icing on the cake! :)
I want diamond earrings!!
I would love to have this prize !!!! Tks Bakerella !!
I want life to be like a big chocolate chip cookie..sweet, smooth and milky and sometimes bittersweet…with some bumps but mostly filled with goodness and warmth….and that wish goes to my family and friends and the entire world…Paula
For Christmas, I would love to close on my home early. We have been pushed back 2 times already and I have not been able to decorate or bake cookies with my 3 year old twins! :)
I’d love a trip to NY :)
Merry XMAS!
This will be my first Christmas away from my family in south Georgia since I’ve recently married. I’ll be with my husband’s family in El Paso, and for Christmas I would like to “feel” like a part of the family and enjoy new traditions without being sad that I am without my family on Christmas for the first time in 30 years.
Those cookies look so good! Too good to eat! (Kidding, nothing looks too good to eat! :-) )
What I want for Christmas is to be able to bake something, anything, and have it turn out well twice in a row. I’m pretty much- awesome baking experience, disaster, awesomeness, disaster… I’ll even settle for mediocre on a regular basis; right now it’s either wonderful or on fire. *sigh*
For Christmas I would love a long vacation in a snow covered luxury cabin.
I decided I would like a new digital camera for Christmas and I thought I had figured out which one until I saw your post! Now I’m all confuzzled as to which one to get. Maybe Santa will make the decision for me. :-)
The cookies are adorable and I think your piping looks great! Love the blog!
I’d love for my hubby’s clinic to finally be successful and for us to once again have the option to travel to see friends and family when we want to.
I’d love to get another puppy. Santa usually doesn’t come through with requests like these,so I’d also like the sparkly stocking with all your cookie goodies.
A cruise to the Carribean…that gets mysteriously stranded there forever…
I want a day at the spa!!! Mani, pedi, facial, massage… oh one can only dream….

What a cute giveaway! I’ve asked “Santa” for a new camera so I can take pictures on our cruise.
I want the Pioneer Woman’s cookbook!
All I want for Christmas is a stocking full of Icebreakers Ice Cube gum…..YUM!
I want to be happy and spend time with my family…and MAYBE I want a shiny new Macbook, but mostly family :D
Love the cookies. You rock! I would like good health for my family this Christmas. Thanks for sharing your wonderful work.
Fun, Family and Friends…that’s what I love!
Your cookies make me cry, as I know when I try them they won’t look like that. But they will still taste good! I would like to spend Christmas with my family in Bemidji, which I haven’t been able to do for seven years, and won’t be able to this year either. But a girl can wish!
I don’t really won’t anything special. I am a newly single mom of two boys and my family and friends have done so much for me this year. I have already had Christmas all througout 2009.
hello kitty x tokidoki stuff!
I would like my prayers answered.
I’m already getting what I can. Going home to California for Christmas. There is nothing else I could want that would top that!
To be with my family and to win the lotto!
For Christmas this year I want to spend a nice, fun, relaxing day with family and friends. Of course, if there was a nice red mixer under the tree that would be good too!
hmm… new boots?
I’d LOVE to win this! I’m really excited to bake some Christmas cookies this holiday! This is my first Christmas with my new husband…what more could I ask for? :) …if I had to ask for something…I’d like a fugi instax camera!

I want to spend time with friends and family. I would like to make time to decorate cupcakes, shop for christmas presents, and take advantage of time off work.
I would love to get a great day with my family for Christmas. Just watching the joy in the kid’s eyes is enough for me.
I love your cookies, I keep practicing with royal icing. Maybe one day I will get it.
Love the cookies! We are always our worst critic,I think yours look awesome.
I am hoping for a steamer and tortilla press so I can make my own tamales.
I want a dutch oven. Oh, yes I do. I also want to see everyone smile when the open presents. I love that. And for complete stangers to stop and say………. “Merry Christmas”
Fun time with family and a GPS!
Most importantly, I can’t wait to spend time with my family and friends from high school. But I have a second wish. This is so tacky, I’m (almost) embarrassed. I’m a poor college student and I’m studying abroad in the spring. I would just like some cold hard cash so I can travel!
I am hoping that I will get to spend the holidays with my family and I want some new baking supplies from my fiance.
This is such a neat giveaway — thanks for offering it!
I want a new camera….Canon Rebel would be just fine! :)
I just gotta capture all the moments with my newborn and all the sports actions moments with my teenager!
I want to enjoy my little man’s first Christmas. I want snow and lots of it! And I want to pig out and eat cookies for breakfast. MMMMMmmmm.
The only thing on my Christmas list is The Pioneer Woman’s cookbook. And I’d love the time to enjoy making all the recipies with my friends and family.
There are so many ‘things’ I have been dreaming of and then the past week, one of my children got sick. Now, I have 2 sick but the first child is getting better after 7 days. So, now I really just want a healthy house so we can enjoy the day at home and create some wonderful memories!
I’m looking forward to having all my boys home – will be the ‘last’ time – my oldest is getting married in January – the times they are a changin’……….
I would love a beach vacation…..
No stress!!
What I want for Christmas? A VitaMix blender! Oh, and then room on the counter to be able to display it proudly.
All I want is a nice set of pots and pans. And maybe some new cookie sheets. And a new electic skillet would be nice. I’m not being too greedy am I?
This Christmas I want to be the hit of my cookie exchange this Sunday. I am still looking for my cookie that I am going to make this year. Need to make 10 dozen but want them to be something special. This will be my second year of hosting a cookie exchange. You should try it, they are a fun way to see your girlfriends over the holidays, have a couple of hours to relax from the Christmas/Holiday “stuff” we ladies all are tyring to get done in time. I make a light lunch, some punch and we have fun seeing all the cookies that were brought. Everyone gets to go home with one dozen of each guests cookies and I hope an afternoon of fun. Your site gives me inspiration to try new things. I think the cookies today could be my cookie exchange cookie next year, if i win.
I would love an iPhone!!
I asked for PWs cookbook… hope I get it!
What I really would like to do is just chill with my family and enjoy good food, good wine, and maybe a movie.
Those cookie cutters are going on my list!
This Christmas, I really hope my parents get to take that trip to Florida they’ve wanted. For myself, I wouldn’t mind getting officially accepted into grad school!
I want a healthy new baby (#2 is due in June) and something, anything, that will keep my busy toddler girl engaged for longer than 5 minutes. :) Merry Christmas to you!
I want for my husband to finally be employed again. :)
I’m hoping for a safe drive to my hometown and my husband’s for Christmas. As far as material Christmas presents, I’d like a L series wide angle lens, sewing machine and an iPod. :)

I love your site!! Your so creative!
I want to have a great Christmas with my family, and watch my kids excitement of opening up their gifts…. and maybe throw in a cute new purse for me!! Ha
I just want to have a peaceful day home with my husband. I wish my family wasn’t spread so far apart because I’d like us all to be together, especially my birth brothers who I just found last year.
aww. so cute! For me, I want good health all year for 2010! If I can’t have that, I can settle for a good book. :)
Well, not to be picky, but I’m Jewish :) What I’d love for Hanukah is a gift card or stuff for the home I’m putting together for me and my fiance. We’re getting married next October and there’s so much to do!
I want to have safe travels for my husband and I back home so we can see our families and celebrate together!
For Christmas I want a new dishwasher
I’d love to have an iPod touch. But spending time with my new husband and family is all I need. And maybe some Christmas cookies! :)
I may be getting my christmas wish a little early. My husband and I have been wishing for our very own home and finally tomorrow we’re supposed to close!! :)
Happy wife , Healthy kids!
It may sound silly, but I would love to have snow on Christmas – and lots of it! My daughter (who is 2) is dying to make a snowman and it hasn’t snowed much at all yet. (I live in Indiana.) So, I’m hoping for snow and decent temperatures so that we can actually go outside to play in it!!!!!
I would love to win – you always find the cutest stuff! Christmas just makes me happy – I really don’t want anything but lots of family around.
I want my son to come home from Iraq. I think it’s going to happen!!!! That is all I want.

Beautifully fun cookies! I love them!! This year for Christmas I’m asking for true peace with my dad’s passing…

A dutch oven. There are just so many recipes I want to try and with a dutch over, the world is my oyster :)
I love sugar cookies at Christmas time. I have been making treats as gifts for the past few years. This year for Christmas, I want and need a new hair straightener. I also hope that we can travel safely while we visit family this year. Merry Christmas to you Bakerella!
Ooohhh, the main thing I want for Xmas. I just want to spend time with my husband. He will be leaving for bootcamp with the Marines on June 1st, so I every moment with him is precious. :D
As usual, my mouth is watering after stopping by. And those spatulas are beyond cute. This Christmas, I’d love to take a few days off… but most of my wishes are for other people. I’m pretty much all set. :) Hope you’re having a great day!
I would love some sleep. More importantly I can’t wait to see my daughter playing with her gifts on Christmas.
The cookies look fabulous!
I am graduating from college at the end of the month so I am looking forward to going back to my hometown. I want to celebrate the holidays with my friends and family. I always make dessert for Christmas Eve :)
I just want to be able to be surrounded by family during the holidays. There is nothing better than sitting around, eating, laughing, singing, and dancing during Christmas time!
PEACE to be really felt within our family. There has been lots of “drama” lately so my wish is to just have a truly Merry Christmas with my hard working, loving husband and father to my 3 wonderful children; Morgan, Avery & Brycen. For my store bought give, just something unique and from the heart.
such cute cookies! I want a new bedroom set.
I would like to see my boyfriend for Christmas. It has been 4 months and I miss him!
I want a digital SLR camera… but I’m a Nikon girl, so I really really want the D90. I think I have convinced my hubby that since my current Nikon SLR lenses will work with it, I just need the body….. we’ll see in a few weeks how well my persuading has done.
Cute stuff btw… wish I had a Crate & Barrel close to me up here in PA.
Love, love, love your cupcake cookies! I have such fond memories of making frosted sugar cookies with my grandma. I need to check out this book. As for what I want for Christmas I have a new printer on my wish list. Do you think Santa reads your blog?
We have a second house that my husband has been working hard on fixing up so we can put it on the market. All I want for Christmas is for us to be able to get that done.
And possibly a set of stainless steel mixing bowls. Is that too much to ask for?
All I want for Chrismtas is to wake up Christmas morning and see the joy on my children’s faces. I need nothing more than that and sharing Chritmas morning and Christmas breakfast with my family. There’s nothing better in the world than that!
I want some warm boots to get me through this Chicago winter!
I’d love an awesome vacation someplace wonderful!
I want to spend some time with my family on vacation, skiing and skating and swimming. Very cute colors on the cookies! Thanks for the opportunity to win something!
For Christmas, I just want a nice, relaxing day with my family.. I actually have off work this year.. So that’s amazing.. And it’s my 10 month old daughter’s first Christmas, so I’m hoping it all goes well!! As long as I get to see her smiling and tearing open that Christmas wrapping paper in amazement, I think that will be the biggest gift to me! :)
altrayer@hotmail.com
I want a baby :)
For Christmas I want to finish unpacking my new house and shop for lots of fun decor items :)
And I want all of my friends and family to help me!
To shop till i drop! With santas money!!!
I want a happy healthy baby who comes through surgery better than she went in.
What I want for Christmas……….of course I want everyong to be happy and healthy and end world hunger and of course World Peace!
But what I really want this year for Christmas is a bit selfish, I would love a new puppie…….Either a Yorkie or Chihuahua!
It’s my heart’s desire, this year! Hint Hint Santa!
I just found out I was pregnant. I have my first Dr.’s visit on Dec. 21, I’d like my Christmas gift to be that the baby is healthy!
A new hairdryer. And a relaxing time with my little family.
I have taught cake decorating for 25 years. I recently taught my daughter-in-law how to decorate cakes . I am teaching my 4 year old granddaughter how to decorate. We have 3 generations of cake decorators in the family. We love your cookies!
Pick me! Pick me! I feel like a kid today.
Health..wealth and happiness!!…please.
I want a new camera – one that doesn’t look blurry every time I snap a picture. Ok, maybe I need to lay off the caffeine, but I still want a nicer camera.
I too need to perfect my wavy lines. I need this so I can practice…right? :)
I hope Ashley B (#96) above gets pregnant. What a wonderful Christmas wish for her. I wouldn’t mind every color stamp pad, paper and marker color in the Stampin’ Up catalog. Trick to piping that icing…slow and steady wins the race. Just keep saying that over and over, and don’t forget to breath! I tend to hold my breath when I pipe icing. Happy Wednesday.
crossing my fingers!
