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.

I would love a new kitchen aid mixer :) dreaming!! but, maybe!!
this christmas I would love to have a drama free xmas with the inlaws! :o)
Altruistically, my grandma to recover as quickly as possible from her stroke.
Selfishly, a countertop oven capable of fitting a 13-inch round pan wouldn’t be too bad either. :-)
My big wish is to be able to afford culinary school a year from now. My small wish is to receive this knit hat I’ve been drooling over from Diesel.
I would like to have a DSL camera to take good photos for special moments, and my bakes of course =D
For Christmas I just want to be able to go home and see my family. Hopefully the weather will let me.
A new digi cam wouldn’t hurt though!
I love getting a new pair of brushed cotton PJs for Christmas and snuggling up with my husband and our two cats in front of the TV, with tree lights twinkling nearby, and tummies full of yummy festive foods.
That’s what make Christmas warm and fuzzy for me :)
What I want for Christmas is to see some of my sick patient’s make it through the holidays and be able to enjoy it with their families.
I wish that Santa would take away the last 5 lbs. of post-pregnancy fat with him as he leaves the house this year.
Pick me pick me…my daughter would love this!!
Believe it or not one of the things I have asked for (ok…I have ordered and it is sitting in the cupboard) is a new lens for my camera….how boring! But I’m really excited and I have actually had dreams of using it! (I know very sad!!) I just can’t wait to capture pictures of my kids and seeing their smiling faces on Christmas morning.
I want to spend time with my brothers and their families in NYC where I grew up. I haven’t been back in so many years and look forward to walking down 5th Avenue and visiting Rockefeller Center during this glorious time of the year.
Daughter’s birthday is 12/17 and she wants an ice cream cake!
Need a great recipe, last year was a disaster ;)
It’s all about the memories, right?!
Thanks Baka
For Xmas I want a book from you Bakerella! I also wouldn’t mind a cupcake platter from Sprinkles, but most of all, want my kitty to live at least another year, he will be 20 yrs old!
All I want for Christmas is… new plates for my new cabin by the sea:)
No; all I really want is to be home with my family, and not on a oilrig in the NorthSea!
My secret wish for Christmas is that I am able to getting pregnant in 2010 :)
Lovely, lovely, little cupcakes! You Rock- Always!
I want to have a Christmas like the ones from my childhood. A new car wouldn’t hurt. ;)

Oh my! Those are so stinkin’ cute! Love them!
I have asked Santa for a Flip so that I can record all the cute things my two cuties (3.5 years & 7 months) do!
I’d love to be moved into a house with my fiance by then, our first place, but it will probably have to wait until February. I still get to spend the holidays with him, so life is still pretty good;)
I want to make a dessert that makes everyone go “WOW”…. and a fine sunny day for our Christmas at the beach (Southern Hemisphere!)
I want a extra hours in day so I can bake and sew and still get heaps of sleep.
i want a lot of pastries books!
Originally I wanted a new camera. Right now, I’d settle for help cleaning my house. Or to gain no weight after making all the great goodies I learn from you and Pioneer Woman! :)
I would love some vacation to rest with my families and friends… and world wide peace too, if your’e on it.. :)
Nili
That would make a very Merry Christmas for me…I love to make small things also…so please pick me!! I really enjoy all the great goodies you create and it is as much fun copying you as it is seeing what is next with you ! Have a very Merry Christmas Bakerella to you and yours.
Your cookies looked great!! This year for Christmas I want a big 12 cup food processor. My husband loves pie, but I don’t have the patience to make the crust by hand. I told him I would make more pie if I got it. (Thats how I got my stand mixer too!)
i want 2 everybody to be happy and have great memories with their families… :)
I want someone to celebrate with.
For Christmas … see my family together, just once, because she doesn’t speak since years !!!!
I want a sparkly Aquamarine engagement ring so I can stop “secretly” planning a wedding and start making it a reality. The only “secret” is that no one knows about me planning already except 2 people, my boyfriend…and my little sister. haha! OH…and I want to make fantastic baked goods for Christmas! But I have to finish finals before I start.
This is going to sound bad, but I mean it in the nicest way….I want to REALLY TRUELY LOVE the present my husband has bought me for Christmas. I have no idea what he has purchased, and I know that it is the thought that counts, but I thought that I was doing the shopping…I’m not good with Surprises!!!
Good health and snow!
All I want for Christmas is for my boyfriend to be able to finish college. He’s not in the best place financially, and it’s a real struggle for him to balance work, bills, and school.
All I want for Christmas is some quality time with the family, some time to spend baking (which is always put last after husband and kids!) and nice weather (as Xmas is Australia is hot!)
I cannot imagine making such lovely cookies! But for my friends and family, they would be such a lovely gift. You are truly inspiring. May you get that new camera– you so deserve it!
I would really like a stocking full of baking goodies!
I want more baking books, cake decorating books, baking tools, equipment….anything to do with bakign will be grrrrreatt!!!
for Christmas i want to bake goodies all day long with my closest friends instead of going to work.

What I want for Xmas?? I want my children to know the real meaning of Christmas. I want to- not say -I want…. I am thankful to spend the holidays at home, on my nice tropical island…I hope to someday actually make something from your website, instead of just drooling over your pics!! :)

What I want for Christmas is World Peace! Seriously, that is not my beauty pagent answer :) World peace or whatever it takes for my hubby or I not to be deployed over the Holidays ever again.

I want a new bed. My husband and I have been married 9 months this month. We’ve been sleeping on a futon since about a month into it. Before that, it was a twin bed. I have a frame, I just need a new mattress and box spring.
Once we get a new bed, we can move our current (really good if you don’t have to sleep on it every night) futon to the living room and throw out our really crappy futon. (yeah, 2 futons are our major furniture. This is what we get for living in dorms for so long.
I want my little girl to have the best Christmas ever!! This is her first Christmas and my husband and I are so excited!!

Just got invited to a cookie exchange party…how fun it would be to make these!
Anyways, what I want for this Christmas: for my family to be together this year. It would be great if instead of visiting our various in-laws, we could all be together this Christmas.
I wish for a mansion, a pony, and a red porsche… haha the 5 year old in me still dreams big dreams. :)
Love the cookies, btw, so cute!

I want snow on Christmas morning a shiny new Cuisinart mixer under the tree for me!
I just want a happy, healthy family WHITE Christmas here in Finland!
I’d love to have a Canon SLR!! I have my old school manual Canon EOS Rebel, which I love, but lately I’m too lazy to actually buy film and get it developed- who doesn’t want instant results nowadays? So yeah. Pretty new camera, please. :)
I would like a clean house and a dish-free sink for Christmas. All I’m asking for is one day, please. Will the winner also get their Christmas wish? :=)
hmm…maybe 8 hours of sleep. Thats the hardest gift to find these days :) Merry Christmas!!
i REALLY want a Kitchen Aid mixer. and a new camera would be nice. ;P
I want an agility ladder so I can drill some agility into my teammates next semester!
Honestly the only thing I really want for Christmas is being with my family. I focus so much on making sure my three year old son has amazing holiday traditions, I tend to shy away from wanting anything really big.
For Christmas I hope to just have fun with my amazing family. It wouldn’t hurt though if Santa could hook me up with a job either, on the 14th it will be 4 months without one.
I really want a Nikon D90.;)
Clarity of mind and heart….
Not gonna happen
a lot of good food (check, everything bought), goodies (need to start making them) a few das of lazy days and a fun christmas for my 2 year old son who probably won’t really get the full christmas experience until next year. :)
I would absolutely love a new camera with two screens, one on the front and one on the back..or a flip camera would work too :)
For Christmas, I would like a new kitchen =P
Honestly, I don’t really need anything so all I want is to spend time with family and enjoy the wonderful meals together!
I’d like to spend time with my family and maybe go ice-skating with friends… hopping not falling too much!!!!!
All that I want is to be healthy.
I would like a KitchenAid Artisan mixer! And for my brother’s wedding (which is on the 30th) to go as smoothly and wonderfully as possible :)
I already got what I wanted for Christmas! My amazing husband stood in line for seven hours to get me a new computer in a really good black Friday sale!!
Just the five of us at home, all in good health.We’re waiting on a test result for my husband, so… That’s all I wish for!
I want my dad’s hand to get better! He recently broke it at work & it’s a huge financial strain on my mom at this time of year.
All I want for Christmas… is my boyfriend to be in town with me and my family. :) And maybe snow.
I’m really just looking forward to the break from school. Especially for the purpose of baking!! I’m soooo looking forward to it!
very nice cookies~
i hope my friends can pay me a visit on christmas eve,(i hardly meet them since i move sooooo far~) and crazy together \(*^u^*)/
I want to spend time with kids eating good food and playing games without any interruptions.
I’m looking forward to having some time off work. I want to get some baking done- I’ve been working stupidly long hours and have had no time for it lately, and I miss it.
What I want for Christmas is more hours in the day. I could really use a job at the moment, as money is tight, but I have so many volunteer commitments that I don’t actually have time to work for pay, I’m too busy working for free! There are also a lot of craft and cooking projects I want to dive into but they have to wait until January or possibly February. I want more time right *now*!
I’d like to get a new digital camera with an amazing zoom and lens. Point and shoot, but still good. My current one is pretty crappy, only 3x optical and takes forever to process a picture. Very le sigh worthy I think.
I want a day of complete rest and family time.
I want to keep cooking on Saturdays with my best friend Caroline and to chat about girly stuff….Having our husbands keepings the children and trying new recipes (American things).
I wish Bakerella to send us new recipes as usual, thanks for your blog !
I would love Microsoft Word 2007….the trial version expired and I need it really bad!
I would like my 20 month old son to sleep through the night so that I have the energy to make beautiful cookies like this for my first christmas in my own home with the in laws as guests…
Love your blog :)
I want stuff for my new puppy.
I want the rest of my pregnancy to go by with ease…. And to enjoy every moment with my family on Christmas :)
These cookies are too cute! For Christmas…I would like to pay off my college debts!
i want my transfer to another university to go through :)
I want a membership to my neighborhood yoga studio… and a sparkly stocking filled with baking goods.
For Christmas I would really really love to see my husband!! But he is deployed to Afghanistan with the Marine Corps soo that’s not going to happen. Instead I’m asking for lovely time spent with both his and my own family who I do not get to see very often (since the military decides where you should live, it’s not always near family :P)
I want a new purse.
I want a sewing machine so I can get super crafty, and then maybe peace on earth and good will towards all (wo)men.
We’re not doing presents for grownups this year, but I really really want Santa to bring me a Nespresso coffee pod machine. Tried it last week and it’s easy and yummy. And cheaper than my coffee shop habit.
But since that won’t be happening, I’d love to win this!
I would like to have a wonderful Christmas with my family. I hope that everyone is able to share the holiday with family. I also can’t wait to see my 4 Year old daughter’s face on Christmas morning. That is the best!
I want an iPod nano in green, which I know I’m going to get. Another item on my list is baking stuff!
I already “opened” my Christmas gift…a dishwasher! 5 years…I was ecstatic!
this christmas i want my family to be happy and worry free!
I got my best Christmas present a little bit early this year. My beautiful baby girl was born on November 11 after many years of wishing and hoping. Couldn’t really ask for anything more =)
I want my prince charming this christmas (or a job lol) =P
All I really want for Christmas is to be with my family and for my children to have the excitement that only Christmas magic time can bring!
A kitchenAid!
For Christmas, I would love to have your giveaway! Maybe a new oven to bake my goodies :)
