Christmas Cookies

~'Twas The Cookies before Christmas~
'Twas the weeks before Christmas, when all through the house, not a cookie was unfrosted, not even a gingerbread house. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, in hopes that Santa would soon eat his share. The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of sugar and sweets danced through their heads. -Based on 'Twas the Night before Christmas :)
Many, many cookies and sprinkles later...




With love,
~Cupcake Girl~

Happy Birthday ~The Opening~

This is the first cake that I had on my birthday! It is a lemon cake, with raspberry and strawberry icing, sprinkled with pomegranates!
Happy Holidays,
~Cupcake Girl~
