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.

Lots of time with my husband and son! Oh, and I also really want a GPS and a second cupcake display stand. :)
I want it to be enjoyable for my kids!!
A HOUSE to call our own :)
What I really want…a house in the caribbean with a catamaran docked out front. Ok, guess that’s a dream not a wish. I’m most looking forward to seeing my brother and his kids and getting some time away with my husband. Should be wonderful.
How cute are those sugar cookies! I wish I had a steady hand like you. Believe me those would not look like cupcakes after I frosted them.
I want a relaxing vacation for Christmas and maybe something cute and funky from ThinkGeek. I love that website.
I really want to enjoy the time given with my family. It’s going to be my son’s first time have Christmas with our family, and I’m so excited.
I just want quiet time with my friends and family. I just moved to the big ol’ NYC, and everything is so frenetic! I can’t wait for those quiet, restful moments with loved ones (and cookies! and egg nog!)
I have a whole list of cookbooks that I’d love to get for Christmas!
I very much just wish to have all my baking done with ease and everyone enjoy my presents to them. Spending time with my new little nephew would be great, too!
It’d also be nice to get some new stainless steel pots and pans. :)
It’s only 8:30 in the morning here in the Rocky Mountains and you already have 3,547 comments!
I really don’t have any Christmas wishes. I think I have all I would ever want in the way of material things. Not that we are rich, I am content. Maybe I will wish for good health for all my family and friends. I’m grateful for my life, my husband of 35 years, my 6 children, their spouses, and my 15 (almost) grandchildren. Stay well, warm and happy.
~a
Wow! that is some great stuff! The cookies you made are beautiful! I must admit I am a fearful baker but I am trying to be more brave.. little steps at a time. I made pumpkin bars this week and I am going to try and make sugar cookies next week. I look forward to your emails and pictures every week!
All I want is a pink snuggie and a gym membership which my wonderful husband already got me as an early gift..so now I’m just waiting on that snuggie…lol!
It will be nice to spend Christmas with all my family which will be the first in many years. That is all I want. Oh and I love this set so would love to win it:)
I want to go home and have fun with my brothers!!
Also, I want to bake a lot for christmas.
I want to start to dig out of this financial hole my family is in. Money is so tight and it won’t be the giftiest of holidays at my house. But we will be together and that is what counts.
What do I want for Christmas??? Gee… Maybe for my 3 young daughters to get along everyday? Well maybe that is asking for a bit too much. How about a new purse? I’ve been stuck with my old one for 6 years now and would love a new Dooney & Bourke, Gucci or LV hand bag. :)
I want less stress and more love and laughter. <3
For Christmas, I’d love to have the Wilton Christmas Cookie Tree Kit! It seems so awesome. And to spend time with my family of course, especially my boyfriend, who has been studying abroad the past couple of months!
I want my family to be happy and healthy this Christmas! I also can’t wait to see my 2 year old daughter’s face when opens her presents Christmas morning!!
I already have a lot, but that doesn’t stop me for wanting more =) But I really want time with my family! Second I want my husbands job to change their mind about 2 more layoffs, 3rd cake, cookie toys!! By the way where did you get those cute gingerbread men and trees to put on your cookies – super cute!
I want to see my nieces face when she gets the new bike my parents have bought for her, she’s going to be super excited! :D
I want THIS for Christmas! My wedding is just four days later, and I’m doing a cupcake theme. This would be so perfect!
Really though, I already know what I’m getting for Christmas. My fiance’ will finally be in my arms as of the 23rd (he’s in Canada, I’m in the states), and then we’ll be married on the 29th. What better Christmas present is there?
All I want for Christmas is my bills paid off!! Not a very x-massy wish, I suppose.
I’m actually getting my Christmas wish. After two and a half years of infertility, we are finally pregnant!
All I want for Christmas I want my Grammy to come home from the hospital. I have never spent a Christmas away from her and I don’t want to start now.
Ohh, now this is a loaded question. Maybe you should ask, what do you not want!!! JK!! I would LOVE a new flat screen TV for the bedroom!
Rose bushes. I would like husband to plant iceberg rose bushes all around my house as my Christmas gift. They will bloom all year in in CA and I don’t have to trim them…I will finally have color in the gardens all around my house!
And I hope I get one of those cute cupcake cookie cutters in my stocking!
I would like a stressfree Christmas season.
i wish someone that likes me, would win the lottery. then i could quit work, and stay home and decorate cookies all day!!!
Just for my niece to have a good christmas. My sis lost her job and I just want to give her little princess a good holiday.
I need an external hard drive for Christmas because some day my computer is going to rebel and crash. I don’t want to lose all my photographs on that day!!!!!
I want a Canon Digital Rebel XSi!!! And all this cute stuff too! ;)
I already got my Christmas present – a plane ticket to where my family is. But I guess if I could have something else, I would ask for those ice cream sandwich makers you wrote about a while back. So fun!
These cookies could not be more adorable!
I’m from Massachusetts, but living in North Carolina–All I want for Christmas is some snow! Enough to build snow things!
WOO-HOO..you rock Bakerella….great contest!
I would love to give my best friend the hope, the courage and the faith to fight her illness right now….she’s a fighter and I’m right behind her.
Merry Cookie Christmas everyone!
I’m going big this Christmas and I would love a new house or a new laptop! Either one would make my year so much better.
I want to teach my children the meaning of Christmas and demonstrate that by giving to others. I’d also like to sleep in :)
I just want my daughter to have a good Christmas. This is her second Christmas, and she’ll have so much fun this year. She’s asked Santa for a Kitchen, so she can be in the kitchen baking with Mommy!
I want an art class–to spend a few hours of quiet with some watercolors!
I want a yellow iPod nano. And long, lazy days while my boyfriend and I are off work – which will include laid back days w/ family.
PW cookbook.
i want to make sure i live every day to fullest, always aware of God’s blessings
These cookies look too beautiful to eat!!!
All I want for Christmas is to spend time with my fiance and my family!! He was away last Christmas in Afghanistan so I’m just thankful to have him with me this year.
I am in the first stages of pregnancy right now and sadly this baby of mine won’t let me eat any sort of cake or cupcake… but I’m sure the baby (and mommy) would be perfectly happy, nay ECSTATIC! to eat a cupcake shaped cookie for Christmas! :D
I want animals to be respected! They are far too often taken for granted. I mean afterall, they were here first! Be grateful for the animal in your life, and help the ones who are not. Merry Christmas!
I would love to have a SLR camera so I could play alot more ;) I would also love to win your prize – especially the cupcake cookie cutter! Haven’t seen one of those yet – and you make them look SOOO yummy!!
My wish for Christmas is that everything that needs to get done, gets done at work and at home soon so I can rest and enjoy the special time of year ;)
I seriously want weather colder than 70’s. Heck, I’ll even go so far to say that I’d like weather in the 60’s. I’m secretly praying for weather in the 40’s on Christmas Day. It would truly be a Christmas miracle.
I want a KitchenAID!
This Christmas I’d like to help my preschool/toddler boys learn about the joy of giving… I’d also love a family vacation!
For Christmas – a wonderful celebration remembering Jesus’ birth, possibly making a Jesus’ birthday cake (haha!) for our lil’ one, enjoying time with family, opening cute lil’ presents with our daughter, and taking lots of pictures to always remember the good times :)
I want someone to come and clean my house before Christmas!
All I want for Christmas is a new lense for my camera :)
I want to spend time watching my 4 grandchildren all enjoy their first real Christmas, at an age that will be enjoyable for all.
I don’t want any material things, but I want time! I want time that is stress-free and empty of obligations, to spend relaxing with my new husband, visiting with family and friends, watching Christmas movies, baking cookies (using all these goodies!), and reading good books.
I really need new pots and pans. And I’d love to have a relaxed stress-free Christmas.
I really want a new camera — a small one that I can carry everywhere and get more pics of my kids as they grow up!!
I want to be able to decorate cookies like a pro.
I want a healthy baby:)
I would like to regain my sanity, get a call from our adoption agency with a referral, and maybe win a couple thousand dollars! A stand mixer wouldn’t hurt either!! And then maybe world peace (right after the mixer of course, because I think my baking skills COULD solve world peace!)
I would love a Canon DSLR – but that’s probably going to wait for another year. I’d also love to just find that perfect present for my daughters… I’d rather give the perfect present than get anything for myself.
I am just looking forward to some time off work – with nothing pressing to do – what a great gift!
I love cookies & cupcakes…Any size, shape or form!!
I have only a few things I want for christmas, small, little things like a book, a cookbook and a movie I’ve been wanting to buy, but really for Christmas I really just want my husband to actually tell me what he wants for Christmas and not buy it for himself two weeks before Christmas so I have to return the gift, again, for the third year in a row.
I would like enough rain, so we can start planting. I would like comfort for an elderly friend, who lost her husband last week. I would like a clean house and three well-behaved daughters. I would also love to win this awesome contest!
Bakerella,
I really want to be more like you!!
The one specific thing I asked for this Christmas was a cookbook holder – the kind with the pane of glass that goes over the book to stop it getting messy.
I hope I get it!
I love presents that are given with love. However, I really need a vehicle. So, maybe Santa can talk to some used car buddies and help me to finance something.
To marry my girlfriend
I want to spend time with my family baking lots of goodies :)!
Oh ! Thanks for this sweet giveway!
For christmas… I just want… an entire night of sleep !!!!!
Amelie, a french canadian mother of a 11 months old sweetie… ; )
I would love new carpets in our house!! :)
I think your cookies turned out fantastically!
For Christmas, I would like to spend time with family, and have lots of laughter involved!
Since I’ve really gotten into baking lately, my list consists of things I need to bake more. I want: a new cookie dough scoop, nice measuring spoons, a new 9×13 cake pan, a new hand mixer, and a cheesecake pan (this kind of scares me, but I have to try- my husband has been requesting a cheesecake forever!)…. Oh, and books!!
This Christmas I want to get the perfect seats to see my son & daughter in their first dance recitals. No heads or video or cameras blocking my view :) I need to savor every moment!
My son returned safely from Iraq so that was all I really wanted but if someone gave me a Kindle, I wouldn’t complain!
i want magnetic measuring spoons. they’re only $3.99…but I”m hoping Santa will think to put them in my stocking!
I LOVE your blog! I’m so glad I found it!
Who wouldn’t want more cookbooks and cooking gadgets for Christmas! I’ll fit them into my kitchen somehow ;0)
What do I want for Christmas? I really just want my youngest son to go into remission from juvenile arthritis.
Your cookies are beautiful!!! No worries about the messups… that is what makes them even more special! Well, for Christmas… I guess I just want some peace and happiness. My boyfriend proposed to me 10 days ago, we just bought a new house together and are currently in the process of gutting and redecorating, and Christmas with many different families is coming. I am nervous about the future, not just planning the wedding, but wondering if I am right for this wonderful man. The house is a disaster zone (cannot live in it yet!) and we are trying to work on it every night after work even though our current home is about 30 minutes away. Christmas will be difficult because I know that both of us need to be together with each other’s families, who are scattered across Virginia. So, what I want for Christmas is some peace in knowing that everything is going to be okay, that it will all work out and that I really am the right person for this. Along with that peace will come acceptance and happiness ~ happy to see great work being done, beautiful smiling faces eager to share in our good news, and the love in my fiance’s eyes.
I want a vacation! Better yet, a European one!
I’m aiming to have a (mostly) stress free Holiday. That’s what I want for Christmas. =)
I’d like our baby to be born before Christmas, but healthy is most important!
I’m looking forward to seeing my family and friends that live far away from me. As for material things, I’m asking for some Wii games.

If it were possible? A baby. Since it’s probably not, I should try to be realistic (boring!) and say an iPhone.
forgot to leave my email. :(
I want the new front loader samsung washer and dryer.

I think I want some patience to get through everything that a mom needs to get done. Also, the ability to let go when things get a little too insane so that I can just enjoy the holiday with my family!
I would love a macro lens! Adorable cookies!!
I would love to just spend time with my family. And enjoy every second of it!

My 21 yr old daughter is a ‘High Functioning’ Autistic. She loves to bake, She is impecable in her detailing. Every year she plans out her family ginger bread cottage. This year we have a ginger bread cottage as a Reindeer Training Camp. She made mini reindeer gingerbread cookies and decorated each one jumping over candy walls and fences. She has said “Can I use the kitchen?” and when I come back in the room she has made a counterful of perfect cookies. She goes crazy for sprinkles and cook books.
We try just about everything as soon as it comes out.
She recently helped me make frost and decorate 200 cupcakes for a 58 th high school reunion party.
Ali would love this. She eagerly awaits your posts and loves to show them to me.
Thank you for your inspiration and fun posts.
Wendy Lu (Ali’s Mom)
For Christmas I want to spend hours with my daughters, seeing them smile and have fun with lots of baked yummy stuff, presents under the tree, and all the Christmas movies on tv. I also want(ed) a super fancy camera which my husband got for me and let me have early to take pictures of my girls during all the holiday stuff we do.
For Christmas, I’m looking forward to a day or two off work and time with family. And as far as loot goes, I’d love an ice cream maker. My increasingly snug pants don’t, but I do.
I want clothes, I’d tired of my kids dressing better than me. — My fault I know, but still . . . .
I also NEED baking things, I just don’t do enough. :)
I want to avoid all forms of the flu, and be able to enjoy time with my family and friends.
I love the cookies! Do you make the tiny gingerbread men or can you buy those somewhere?
I would love to have a stress free, no drama Christmas for once, but that’s asking for a miracle so instead I’m asking Santa for a new vacuum & mop so I can spend more time with my family and less time cleaning up after them ;)
I want a treadmill for Christmas, so I am feel less guilty about eating all your yummy treat you show us how to prepare. I didn’t say I would really use the treadmill- its all a mental game.
I want a vacation!
I want a puppy!
I just love cupcakes! I also love cookies! To have a cupcake cookie would be just awesome! I’ve been itching to do some baking and this would be just the right inspiration!
I want an elliptical machine so I can work off the cookies I ate &
What I really want is a new camera cause mine died like yours did. But I want it on Christmas Eve so I don’t miss any moments!
I want family time…board games, good food, lots of laughs and love.
Love the cookies…they are darling!
I would love to win this…would be a great birthday present for me. :-) As for Christmas…what I want is just some time to snuggle with my 4 children and my hubby and just enjoy being together. :-)
All I want for Christmas is to make great memories with my family and eat lots of yummy food.
I’d love for my family to get out of debt.
I think my boyfriend would shoot me if I said what I really want, so instead I’ll just say a new blender…life is sad without smoothies.
new ipod !
I want to get a new job, since I am being laidoff effective 12-24
For Christmas, I want my children to experience the “gift” of giving all on their own. I also want them to get along and have fun together over the Winter break. I used to laugh at my mom when she would say “all she wanted was smiles on our faces.” Now, I totally get it!
I would love some baking/decorating skills, sighhhh. I always get inspired by you but lack the ability to actually do any of this stuff. At least to the point where people would actually recognize what it was supposed to be.
I want my baby to grow some hair so that people will quit telling me how cute my son is, even though she is dressed completely in pink! I also am hoping my niece will be born on her due date (Christmas Day) so that my parents will be here for Christmas and so my sister can be put out of her pregnant misery!
I want to find a new dress that fits me like a glove, like it was meant to adorn my body… despite my love for cookies and cupcakes.
I really want a new laptop that is super-de-duper fast. Love the cookies!
For Christmas this year, I want to spend some nice relaxing time with my family and be able to take time off work.
I want to go to disneyland with my family!
I would like a Wii with Wii Fit for Christmas so that I don’t sit on the couch all winter and to help me lose those dreaded pregnancy pounds that I seem to have become so attached to. And my mom would LOVE this giveaway, so I’d pass it on to her.
Dimond earings….square…in a silver setting. Not too much to ask….right? :)
cash!
This year, all I want is to spend Christmas with my new husband! And maybe the Pioneer Women’s cookbook…
I really just want quiet and family time.
What I wish for most is for all of my family members who are coming to make it safe and without incident. Second, and a new wish – a Canon Digital Rebel XS : )
I want to spend time with relatives I don’t see very often.
I want to have more free time to craft/sew/bake!
I want a Cuisinart food processor!!!
I want health for my friends and relatives!!
I’d really like a new camera for Christmas as well…the Canon 50D to be exact!! Merry Christmas!
Love it… Can’t wait until my baking day with daughter this month, would be great to have a new project to share with family and friends
I want the movie “Julie & Julia”! It’s one of my new favorites. :o)
I want a Keurig!!!
I am hoping to get some enameled cast iron cookware! And I am looking forward to lots of quality time with family.
I want two weeks off work with no interruptions. And it looks like I am getting it. Happy holidays!
I want a brand new kitchen… new cabinets, countertops, floors and appliances! It’s in the works…
I want to travel around the world with my husband and kids.
And I`d love to have those cookie cutters too! I cant find anything like that in Mexico. Not where I live.
Is it ok to participate from here?
I would love a flash or a wide-angle lens for my D80! Although, I’m usually happy with just about anything that’s cute or useful :)
I either want a big brand spanking new camera, or for my husband to watch my daughter for an entire day…while I enjoy it at the spa. :)
I looooove baking cookies with my kids and they really enjoy it!!!! Thanks for this beautiful photos, ideas, web page …
I’m so inspired by the christmas cookies…I just can’t take it! I’m bursting with ideas! For Christmas, I’m blessed and have everything I could ever need. But, one thing I do want is for my 8-year old son to believe in Santa…for just one more year!
my sister, Lord Willing!
I want to burn the memories of this Christmas into my mind. It is the last Christmas I will have with my daughter home before she graduates as an RN and gets married to her Air Force officer. They will be traveling far away next year, and since she is the baby of the family, I will have an empty nest. I’m treasuring up as much of her as I can these few last weeks.
I need/want a new digital camera. I’m hoping Santa will bring it for me :)
ps. your cookies are wicked cute! :)
i already got my present cuz it was on sale on black friday but i am sooooo looking forward to watching my son open all of his gifts….that is the best!
I want to spend at least one more with my parents, I love them so much and can’t imagine a Christmas without them, and I want a new purse and something sparkly from my DH.
I want to spend time with family, a new DownEast Basics dress I’ve had my eye on, & a Kitchen Aid mixer that works! Sob. Mine broke. ;)
Thanks for doing the giveaway! You rock!
I want As in all my classes and a new Blackberry!
Love the cookies!
Make new memories with family and friends… I am very blessed and appreciate that we can all still gather at the holidays!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
That is so cute!!
We’re not doing gifts, only gifts for our kids. In a dream world though, I’d like a waffle maker, griddle, food processor…and a winning lottery ticket while I’m at it! :-)
I would like to see my family. They live in Canada so and I never really get home.
I want to be able to make cake pops as well as you do!!! And cookies too!
I want to enjoy Christmas with my family with out any drama from extended family members! I also want to be able to eat whatever I want and not gain any Christmas weight! Super cute cookies!
For Christmas I want Santa to let me explain. Although I haven’t been nice every day, I have for most of the days. I would like to have a wonderful Christmas morning with my 2 wonderful boys and husband. And finish the day off spending with my parents and sister and her family. Ta-Da! Merry Christmas everyone!
Love the cookies! I want cold weather running clothes. My real wish is to move back to GA, but I’m sure I won’t get that for Christmas.
For my husband to find a job, it’s been almost a year now. And world peace :-)
All I want for Christmas is for my baby girl to arrive safely, she’s due Christmas Day.
I just want to have all my children home and to make memories to last a lifetime :)
Relaxing time with family and friends is all I need and want this christmas!
How cute! You are becoming a master!
I hope I win, and I hope everyone enjoys the
beauty of winter holidays.
it be really nice to get pregnant for Christmas, but not likely, so i’ll settle for a news lens for my camera.
