There was a bake sale fundraiser at the Rehoboth contra dance. I scored some of the treats.
I like Cookie Man cookies. A guy from the dance makes these massive chocolate chip cookies with huge chunks of chocolate and generously sprinkled with flaked salt. Decadence I never make with my own cookies. It's always a treat anytime his cookies appear at the dance. I happily plunked down my money to bring a half dozen of these home from Friday's dance. I've had to hide them so I didn't eat all of them in one sitting. Yay for the Cookie Man!
I like these lemon shortbread cookies. Isn't the icing beautiful? The colors! The details! They'd be too pretty to eat, except I had sampled some of these a couple of weeks ago and I knew how delicious they'd be. It would be a sin to let them get stale, right? These were part of a silent auction. I was excited to have entered the winning bid.
Finished tree, taken with new camera. |
I like my new toy - a new camera. Not a toy camera - a real one. Total happy dance. I've been thwarted trying to replace my little Elph for over a year. I still need to learn all of the gadgets on this thing, but I've been very pleased with the results from my first few times using it. (Thanks, Rob! You're awesome.)
I like that I finished the tree quilt. Finally. I had to wait a full week until the wind died down to take photos outside - but I took them with the new camera - bonus!

I'd say those cookies look too good to eat, but I like cookies too much to follow through with that! Your quilt is stunning!
ReplyDeletecookies... and are those llamas? Alpacas" I love their smiling faces!
ReplyDeleteI wonder who the artist was who painted those cookies! Such patience. Your camera works very well but I think the photographer knows what she's doing. That quilt is stunning. mary in Az
ReplyDeleteThose cookies look and sound delicious! I love your quilt, too, especially the way you arranged the leaves, and have one falling off. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteA new camera! Congrats! I think a new camera is worth celebrating with All The Cookies :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I'm drooling more over the cookies or the quilt. Thinking...definitely that beautiful quilt!
