Christmas and some cookies

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.

Cookies

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.

Cookies

These were two of the better ones.

Cookies

These … not so much. But squint and they’ll look better.

Snowflake Sprinkles

See …… Okay, I’m kidding. I kid. These are the good ones. Well, the better ones anyway.

Mess

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.

Cookies

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.

Cookie Stuff

Yes, the original Cookie Craft came out with a mini Cookie Craft Christmas book.

Christmas Craft

Also with recipes, ideas, and tips. It’s very cute. And small, which you know I like.

Cupcake Cookie Cutters

You’ll also get this cute 2-piece cupcake cookie cutter set. Love it!

Cupcake Stencils

And some cupcake stencils. You can use these on cookies, too.

Cake Tester

A cupcake-shaped cake tester. This totally unnecessary utensil was too cute to pass up.

Mini Cupcake Spatulas

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.

Stuffed

And it all comes stuffed in a sparkly stocking.

I would like to have some clothes that haven’t been used as napkins by the short people in my house (aka my little boys). I want Santa to come and sprinkle fairy dust over the presents and I want him to really REALLY enjoy the goodies we make for him. That’s all. for now.

  33. All I really want for Christmas is for our family to have their Christmas joy back. The last 2 years have been hard, we lost our Grandma 2 Christmases ago and we lost our mom this last New Years, so I’d just like for us to have a little peace and happiness–that’s all.

  34. How generous of you! For Christmas…I want it to be January already! Not possible? :) Okay, I want what I know for sure I’m getting (yay!), to be back in my home town, having fun with family and friends.

  35. I’d love to win!! They’re all so cute!!

    What I would like for Christmas is a lot more sales in my etsy store, some material, and the ability to eat lots of food!!! Oh yes – sounds good!!!

  36. Time. Lots of time–to bake, to talk to friends and sisters, to read, to sleep . . . . Please Santa, just fill my stocking with time.

  37. I want health insurance so I can give my son a baby brother or sister.

  38. This Christmas I would like to have some quality time with my family and loved ones, some cozy festive partying, and a well-decorated home.

  39. i want to spend time with my family and friends this Christmas over some yummy food! Winning those cute goodies wouldn’t hurt either. ;)

  40. I would like my two front teeth.

  41. hmm….a pizza peel would be nice, as would a gift certificate to a local baking store…oh wait we don’t HAVE a local baking store. so I’m thinking that’s what I want. For someone to open one! Yes that would make it a dream come true Christmas for sure! Well that or a white Christmas….oh wait I live in Georgia…..highly unlikely….So I’ll settle for a new super cute apron and a pizza peel!

  42. I want a car so i can finally stop riding my bike in the freezing cold rain. so when i get to work i can look as warm and friendly as everyone else… :] those cookies are adorable !

  43. Dear Santa,

    I want this Christmas to be full of laughter and love. I want every person that has touched my life to receive joy and warmth in their hearts. I deeply wish for people to wake up with clearer visions of their futures and the determination to go after them. I beg for food and shelter for those who need them, while hoping for guidance and empathy for the rest. I want red cowboy boots. I want to see people care about their communities. I want to study abroad. I want to let myself go and trust life to the fullest. I want to learn how to fly. I want things to happen when and only if they are meant to happen. I want to live. I want to travel around and get lost. I want to find my way.

    All I really want for Christmas is life, accompanied by love and paths.

    See you the 24th.
    Yours,
    Emily

  44. I would love to be in the US this Christmas but that’s not possible. My husband is in the military and we’re stationed overseas (we haven’t been home in over 2 years). Since I can’t really have that, I just want a peaceful and fun Christmas with my husband and friends since this will be our last one here. And I want some yummy treats!

  45. I would like for my husband to not be stuck “for too long” in the new job he is starting in January. He’s going upstairs to work for a General, which means really long hours and lots of time away from home. :)

  46. Just wishing for wonderful happy memories for my daugther’s first Christmas. She’s our little miracle.

  47. All I want for Christmas is acceptance letters and financial aid from every single one of the graduate programs to which I’m applying. Oh, and world peace, of course.

  48. I want a dog that will attempt to eat all the cupcakes/cookies/cake balls on this website.

  49. I want to spend time with my family baking, talking, eating, and having fun!

  50. i REALLY want an easy bake oven…i never got one as a kid so i just wanna fill the void in my little baking heart and tell everyone that i finally got one! :)

  51. I must admit, when I saw all the prizes, I involuntarily made the most pathetic sound ever–something that could possibly be translated to, “waaaaaaant~” Maybe my favorite of your prizes *3*

    what I want for christmas? Materially? Well, there’s this cute red apron from crate&barrel.. origami paper.. a nerf gun.. a bean bag chair..
    what I REALLY want is to be able to enjoy the holiday. school has been seriously stressing lately.

  56. I want new fuzzy slippers this Christmas.

  57. I’d love some of those candy melts that you use for cake pops since they’re really hard to get in the uk.

    Since that’s impossible what I’d really like is a nice long run with my hubby on Christmas morning before church then when he’s at work I’m going to have macaroni cheese for Christmas dinner on my own and probably make some biscuits for his colleagues.

  58. I want this Christmas to be more about “feeling Christmasy” than anything else. Warm fires, the smell of simmering cider and Christmas cookies, the sounds of music and laughter, time together watching Christmas specials on TV or driving through the neighborhood looking at lights.

  59. I want the Glee Soundtracks!!

  60. I want to spend the season with friends and family soaking it all in. I also want to win because this would be PERFECT for my bestie, she LOVES cupcakes!

  61. Peace among my family is what I really, really want for Christmas!

  63. I want to have a happy holiday with my family…and hopefully a little kitten on christmas morning!

  64. I want a water softener and a spring form pan. Two random things I know but thats would make me happy as a clam!

  111. I would like a beater blade for my stand mixer – it just looks like something i need!! Oh and peace on earth would be nice too!

  112. I actually want a cookie scoop. You know, one of those little ice-cream scoops that makes perfect shaped, same size cookies. When I put this on my list and gave it to my husband, he looked at me like I’d asked for a zorberhoffen or a woozlewhatzit. “They make a tool for this?” was his question.

  113. I want to be able to soak up every minute of Christmas with my husband before he deploys, and our new baby girl, in our new house!

  114. I want this!! LOL! And also some books and maybe a monopod!

  115. I got my Christmas present early. It’s called a Dobord. You need one if you’re going to do sugar cookies. Seriously. I don’t know how I’ve lived without it all of these years.

  116. Those are so dang cute!

    For Christmas I want to go home. Well, “home” to my parents and siblings. I miss them.

  122. Ha! I was about to write what I want for Christmas and then I saw comment post #99 and that made me remember that if I was pregnant with a girl I wanted the pretty girly Ergo baby carrier! Gosh! I feel like If You Give A Mouse a Cookie!

  123. I want season 5 of Lost on DVD and a kitchenaid mixer!.

  125. A dinosaur. I could use a good dinosaur.

  126. I want a brand new camera! I want either a Cannon T1i or a Rebel Tsi. I also want a nice warm Christmas with my family!

  127. I want peace on earth. I know that sounds very “Miss America”, but I do. I want to stop worrying about people hurting each other based on religion and beliefs.

  128. Someone to organize my house, is that too boring? And a romantic date with my hubby. I just discovered royal icing, where have I been? I made hannukah cookies and they’re a bit messy but it was loads of fun.

  129. I would love to have my family together. We are all in the different parts of the world and it’s not possible for us to be together. I really miss my sister and brothers, mom and my dad whom I havent seen in a couple of years.

  130. All I wanted for Christmas.. actually.. all the past Christmas’ was to spend Christmas with my entire family. My brother has been in the Air Force for 10 years now and hasn’t been able to spend a Christmas at home since 1999. This year though, he is finally coming home with his own little family to spend it here in Washington State (hopefully it will be a white Christmas as well)! So I’m actually getting what I have been wanting all throughout these years. Nothing spendy but something extremely PRICELESS.

  131. those cupcake cookies are to die for cute!! i think you are awesome!
    i would like that prize for christmas! otherwise just to give my kids a fun christmas!

  132. I wish that I could get through Christmas without having a nervous breakdown!!!! hehehe

  133. All I want for Christmas is a nice fire, a pretty tree, some yummy hot chocolate, delicious cookies and my family all around.

  134. SO CUTE I hope you pick me!! This will be my first christmas without family so i’ll need something to keep me busy =)

  135. If I could have anything this Christmas, I’d whisk my kids and husband across country back home to Florida to be with family. We couldn’t afford it this year, and it will be our first year away from them in a very long time.

  136. I love this!!!un bacio dall’Italia Laura

  137. LOVE IT …

  138. All I want for Christmas is for my father to be able to recover from the stroke he had.

  139. 1. Someone to pay off my student loans.
    2. A lifetime supply of cookies
    3. An owner’s manual for my oven.

  140. Hmmm i really want a Wii for Christmas because I want Cooked or Be Cooked and Cooking Mama. That’s the biggest thing I want I guess. In my dreams – the new anniversary Kitchenaid mixer with that glorious glass mixing bowl. Ahhh

  141. I want tons of new scrapbook stuff!

  142. I am hoping for a new point and shoot camera! The one I want is waterproof!

  143. I love everything cupcakes!!! Yet I am missing cupcake cookie cutters…pick me, pick me!!!

  144. for christmas….let’s see…
    i’ll take a week off of work so i can get some things done. if it needs to be tangible, then i’d say a wishblade die cutting machine. totally a wish; certainly not a need.

  145. All I want for Christmas is for my kids to be healthy and happy. The rest is all relative.

  146. All I want for the holidays is a cure for breast cancer. Nothing else.

  147. Hmmmm, I had so much trouble with this question this year from everyone because I have everything I could ever need or want.. Although, my pots and pans are releasing teflon flecks into our food.. So maybe new pots and pans!
    I really just want our little girl (almost 3) to get spoiled rotten, which she will! :)

  148. I want an iPod!

  149. I want my husband home! He just took a new job out of state and is commuting back every other weekend :(

    Some Ugg slippers would be nice also…

  150. There’s actually not alot I want this year. i’ve already had a few weeks of retail therapy leading up to the big event. I would love this prize though. I recently made sugar cookies for a cookie exchange and it was a big fail.

  151. Bumpy piping lines? You are too hard on yourself. I think your cookies look better than Martha Stewart could do and that is saying a lot. You are a master and I love looking and baking because of your inspiration. I also want to win… :)

  152. How cute are those cupcake cookies!! Love them! For Christmas this year I want lots of time to relax and enjoy being with family! And, yarn. I’m a knitting addict like that. Must have yarn under the tree!

  153. I want to bake cookies and treats with my kids, listen and dance to Christmas tunes, play games together and enjoy our homemade treats together in our cozy home. I really enjoyed reading everyone else’s Christmas wishes as well, and I hope that each and every one of them comes true. ;-)

  154. My Christmas wish is spending time with my wonderful husband. He works out of state and will be home for 11 days. I would rather have that time with him than any material thing. (I’m a cheap date?)

  155. All I want for Christmas is my TWO FRONT TEETH?!?!

    No really I want is to take a photo class, loose some weight, and be famous! Okay okay… world peace? Well, I’ll just stick with being with those I love most is ALL I want for Christmas :)

  156. i want it not to rain when I’m at Disneyland

  157. I would really love to find out my husband and I were having a baby…if I can’t have that (this year) I would like the 16 cup Cuisinart food processor that Williams-Sonoma is selling. Either or both of those things would really send me over the moon!

  158. I want more hours in each day, please. Maybe 8 or 10 extra, so that I’ll have time to sleep!

  159. I would love to get a Wii for Christmas! But, since I am short on cash, I will be happy to spend the holiday with my family–which is what I AM getting to do for Christmas.

  160. All I really want for christmas this year, is some time to go on a quick vacation to visit friends!
    and a chance to win this AMAZING giveaway! :)
    Thanks!

  161. The list goes on and on and on and on. But mainly a camera. Oh god damn I need a camera. It probably has to be waterproof too, I’m pretty clumsy (this week i set a teatowel on fire making ur delicious cake pops! +I might have broken my cars windscreen as well…)

    I nearly cried when I read about ur camera. Fear not, it will survive. And if it doesn’t well, A goo excuse for a new one! I hear Santa has no price limits…

  162. I would love a peaceful car ride to my folks house for the holidays! Our little girl didn’t do too well on the last car ride, but I’m hoping that since she’s older now, things will go a bit smoother!

  163. I just want an unhurried evening with my little family: a 3 month old, a potty-training 2 year old princess and a wonderful husband. I’m looking forward to putting together the little tykes dream kitchen for my little girl, cuddling with my baby boy and laughs with my husband.

  164. What do I want for Christmas? To win this giveaway!!!

  177. I want a Wii….and I think I’m getting one, too :D

  178. I don’t really want a lot for Christmas because my family is trying to save to pay for my wedding. But, True Blood season 1 wouldn’t hurt!

  179. Wow! these cookies are awesome! for christmas i just want some relaxation time with my family- i’m a med student so I don’t get that too often.

    P.S. Crate and Barrel! They never fail me!

  182. i’d love a new ipod touch!

I want to survive our 9 hour travel day from Nashville to San Antonio (yes, we’re flying, but with free flights so we’re going all over the world!) with a 2 1/2 year old (BOY!) and a sweet 8 1/2 month old girl. I normally travel with them by myself, but daddy’s making this trip….something tells me this will be even more work for the mommy girl. :-/

  185. Obviously I want to have a wonderful holiday with my friends and family, possibly snow!

    As a gift I really want a nice cooling rack for my townhouse at college.

  186. A kitchen aid stand mixer is on my list. In white. or Red. Or chrome. I can’t decide. Hope Santa makes that decision for me!

  193. I want to spend this Christmas with my husband and our two daughters. My baby is 3 months old and I want this to be a Christmas to remember for her and her 4.5 year old sister.

  194. What a cute contest! And a great treat as we get into gear for Christmas — thanks for spreading the love.

    Honestly, all I want for Christmas is to spend some time laughing and loving — and baking and cooking — with my family. That will sustain me for another winter!

  195. Can I have two things on my list?? A kitchenaid mixer in white and a mountain buggy swift pram …. is that too much? Am I being greedy?

    Merry Christmas!
