Teri puts on such a fun party that when her friend stopped by, she begged to join our group! She's not a cousin, tho! :) I am so inspired that now I am hosting a cookie decorating get together! I am hosting a bridal shower - part of the take-away bags for guests will be a decorated flip flop cookie (as suggested by Teri). Teri is my mentor in this process and is getting me set up with all the tools I will need to host this party successfully! So your impact is widespread, Janet! Keep on bloggin'!<br />Happy Easter!<br />MaryMary Mortonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258199394802214950.post-57503719535547597792014-04-18T16:37:22.110-04:002014-04-18T16:37:22.110-04:00What a wonderful way to connect with family and or...What a wonderful way to connect with family and or friends, years ago the women folk would gather to do big cooking and sewing projects, this is a great way for us women in 2014 to get to do this. I really like this idea. Another way maybe we do by "connecting" on-line and meeting new people. So please don't think nobody reads your blog, we don't all have the time to say so.....sorry. But we do read it and it is a very worthwhile read. You may remember how I said that I love cake stands (I'm one of the cookie cutter winners) anyhoo I adore your bunny cake stand, so adorable! I wish your family a very blessed Easter! <br /><br />Hearts and Toodles, BarbiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4258199394802214950.post-61722765811262173012014-04-18T15:02:21.628-04:002014-04-18T15:02:21.628-04:00Thanks for the great post Janet -- I never dreamed...Thanks for the great post Janet -- I never dreamed I'd ever see my name associated with your most awesome blog!

My extremely talented sister, Teri, hosted us this past Sunday for a whole lot of quality cousin-time as we decorated the perfect cookies she and sister Toni made a couple days earlier. Teri had all the supplies ready to go for us, many of them purchased from Oui Sugar. I know she is inspired by you, Janet, and all your beautiful creations. And never think that no one reads your blog as there are lots of us out here who check in daily, hoping for a new entry. We talk about your cookies all the time!<br /><br />I can't wait for everyone to see these beauties on Easter Sunday. That is if I can keep from telling them that we're on the blog! <br /><br />Thanks for the love, Janet- right back at ya!
