Recently, I've done more 50's for a birthday, Cubs cookies, some playing cards for a bridge gathering - the A, 2, 3 in all suites, some 1st birthday cookies, baby shower cookies and arm cast cookies (today). Coming up I have some girlie stuff (shoes and purses), some yet to be decided, and graduation cookies for December. : )
Some of my favorite comments relative to my cookies:
One lady who had tasted my cookies at a friend's house was going to miss the other bridge club outing where that hostess was also serving my cookies. She made the hostess promise to freeze one for her.
I made St. Louis Cardinal baseballs for Father's Day for my boyfriend's dad. His mom, a die hard Cub fan, said she had to eat one because she just couldn't wait a couple days until hers were delivered (summery cookies).
My boyfriend has lodged an official complaint that he doesn't get to eat enough cookies in comparison to the large amounts leaving our kitchen.
My mom (the one who made the comment "Who would make a yellow star?") is wowed by them and tells me I'm talented. I'm 34, and this might be the highest praise I've ever received from her. :)
There are the compliments, of course. "These are the best sugar cookies I've ever had." "This is too cute to eat." "Are you planning to open a real bakery?" "When are you quitting your day job?"
The biggest one is you all passing my name to people you know - THANK YOU! That is the best compliment ever.
