Dinos for Dillon!

It was a 4 year old birthday party for Trey's buddy Dillon - Dinosaurs!!! How could I resist using color and creative license on the creatures?!?



I decided on doing an:

Apatosaurus

Tyrannosaurus Rex

Stegosaurus

Triceratops

Pterodactyl

and Pteranodon...

...and of course for the smash cake - a HUGE T-REX!




I received great response on the new vanilla recipe I concocted - I think this may be the keeper!

Sugar Cookies!!!

So, I tested and tested and tested sugar cookie recipes searching for the perfect recipe. I've had to tweak a bit, but found one that stays soft and yummy for days. Here are my latest creations...I've done wedding dresses, birthday cakes, etc...but never had the camera on hand for photos. :( Bummer. So, here begins the official documentation of my sugar cookie fetish! We took these to my friend Mai Mai's house for a summer BBQ earlier today - they got a great new outdoor kitchen that we were fortunate to be invited over to help christen! We had such a great time!
