Smiles By The Bucketload!

Had way too much fun putting together this little bucket of treats for my nephew's little children.  Looking forward to seeing them this weekend and hoping this delivery might just put a smile on their beautiful face! Whatever you're doing this weekend, hope it make you smile too.

New Baby Grandson



We are very excited to announce the arrival of our first Grandchild.  Mason TJ Moffat Vandebeek made his big debut on Saturday,  July 30, 2011 at 4:08am, weighing 7lbs 15oz and measuring 20.5 inches.

  Of course Nana (that's me) couldn't let this occasion pass without cookies of some kind.  I had everything ready with pink and blue icing standing by because we didn't know the sex until he arrived.  I guess I can find some other use for that pink icing.  I couldn't wait to start passing these out to everyone I met, and besides they are much better than cigars!!!




For the new family I created a very special cookie cake.  The "cake" itself is made from disposable diapers, which I am sure they will find a use for, and for the decorations I used every baby themed cookie cutter I could find.  Something sweet for the parents to pass out as well.

Sending Summer In A Box

My daughter may be on the other side of our continent these days, but it doesn't mean I can't still spoil her.   Here are some wonderfully summer treats that I just sent her way.   While I can't really claim to have been too inspired by our summer here for these, they are a great reminder of summer spent with my daughters at our cabin, enjoying lots of sun, wearing shorts and flip flops as we smelled the flowers and took a dip in the lake! Ahhh!

The Flip Side Of Food!

Inspired by the more summery weather we've finally seen, I baked up a batch of flip flops and have enjoyed sharing these little tastes of summer with my friends. What better way to capture the lazy days of summer than open toes, flowers and ladybugs! Ahh!  The good news is that if the weather lets us down again ( like yesterday-what rain!), then flip flops are also the perfect shoe for water too AND as cookies they still work well with a mug of hot chocolate - I know, where did July just go? Hopefully the sun will be back out again soon though and maybe then I can do sun hats or shades to go with the flip flops!

Calendar Girls

Had a very busy morning delivering some much needed treats for my friends at Curves.  These ladies helped so much with our charity calendar photo-shoot.  We were photographed for a (very tasteful) nude calendar that is going to be a fundraiser for a local women's shelter. It turned out to be a particularly fun experience thanks to the superb organizing skills of Kim and Elizabeth. Also many thanks to Raylene for doing our hair, Jane for doing the make-up, and  Paige for helping to make sure we looked good. You all made us look and feel beautiful.  And especially thank you to Classic White Photography  for doing our photos.

thank you packages
