Christmas

Winter Wonderful Decorated Cookie Collection

Winter is a favorite of mine!

I apologize to all of you that dislike winter, but there’s something about cold weather that delights my heart…..snowmen!, warm drinks, snuggling by the fireplace, and most of all……SNOW!

I had so much fun making these cookies with all the textures and sparkle.

I’ll try to behave and move on to Valentines cookies now. haha

Happy Winter!

Silent Night Christmas Decorated Cookie Collection

Christmas is upon us….the most wonderful time of year.

For my final cookie set, I wanted to send a cookie message…..Silent Night, Holy Night, all is calm, all is bright. Jesus came so that we might have life in Him. His birth was the manifestation of God’s incredible love towards us. It makes Christmas so much more meaningful when JESUS is the main point.

 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David,  to be registered with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child.  And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth.  And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.  And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.  And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear.  And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”

Have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Holly Jolly Christmas Decorated Cookie Collection

Mixin’ it up with the Christmas cookies…..non-traditional colors and shapes. Lots of fun!

There’s something so whimsical about Christmas. I remember getting so excited during the season when my kids were little. And now…..my excitement transfers to my grandchildren. I am looking forward to when they are old enough to decorate cookies with me. Oh the memories…..

Have a HOLLY JOLLY Christmas!

Christmas Cheer Decorated Cookie Collection

Christmas is definitely a favorite for many. There’s just so many aspects that are delight to every sense and mesmerizing.

I love to start off the season with a more traditional set of cookies that reflect all the red and green beauty around us.

I named this collection CHEER because these cookies (and the season) do exactly what the definition states…

CHEER: [ cheer ] noun
-something that gives joy or gladness; encouragement; comfort:

May your Christmas season be filled with good cheer!

🎄❤️🌲

 
 

Christmas Joy Decorated Sugar Cookie Collection

If you’ve followed my site for long, you know that I decorate seasonal cookies far ahead of schedule…..just to be on top of blog posts, tutorials, classes, etc. So this final set of Christmas cookies for 2018 was created back in September.

August and September of 2018 have been a crazy time for me. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and found myself with a new “full time job” of fighting cancer. I barely had any time to decorate cookies. But I was determined to do as many sets as I could despite the lack of time and energy.

The day after I finished these cookies, I had my surgery (mastectomy). I remember putting the final touches on these cookies and pushing myself to get them done because I wasn’t sure when I would get back to decorating.

These are definitely not my best work….and the photos were hurried and forced. But they are part of my journey. I guess it is interesting to chronicle your life by cookies. ;)

Christmas holds such a special place in my heart. And I’m glad I got to dwell on all it means while I contemplated one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. These little bites of joy brought delight and distraction to my heart as I dreaded the upcoming procedure. And it makes my heart happy that I was able to do something I love despite the circumstances. ❤️

May our Christmas season be especially blessed as we contemplate what life really means and cherish every moment we are given.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
