Star Wars invasion
As I mentioned I was invited to a craft fair, and Levi got so excited that he wanted to sell his own cookies. He is a big Star Wars fan, so he designed shapes for me to cut out of the dough. He had some Yoda, and Clone Trouper heads, which he was very proud of.
These were boys cookies, but he wanted to please the girls as well, and had some butterfly cookies for them. But unfortunately we run out of time to decorate those.
He also made a sign ( My name is Levi, and this is my first business. I am 7 years old) Nothing more was needed to draw nice customers to him. He had a great entrepreneur blood ( I am not sure from who? ) he sold the last cookies for a haft the price going around in the crowd. He was so sweet!
Star Wars was a big hit! I might stole his idea and create more of this for boys. Am I wrong doing so? 🙂
Getting ready for the craft fair
It is September, I was debating what I should do as a main theme for the craft fair. I am really not a fan of Halloween, but I like the spider and the net theme. Basicaly I decided to stick to a number of colors, so the table will look good although the shapes will be very different. My son was really excited when I told him about the craft fair and he not even wants to come with me and sell, but also decorate his own cookies and sell them to earn money. Guess what is the shape of his cookies?
Christmas in the kitchen
I love the smell of baking gingerbread! My recipe is not the normal american style gingerbread, I learned that many people do not like that.
I mixed my Hungarian honeybread and the american gingerbread recipe and the result is for every taste! Even if you do not like the traditional gingerbread, you will like these!
Gingerbread
Everything started some years ago with a couple of gingerbread cookies for Christmas, which my husband brought to work. News year I was asked to bake them again to give away in his office… and there was no turning back. 🙂
Last year I tried out different ways to decorate my Christmas favorite. Gingerbread! This is hand painted red and decorated with royal icing.
Sweet Valentine’s
I am driven by people who ask me to make something for them, and they trust me, that it will be great. That what happened with these cookies. Valentine Day. I have never decorated cookies for this occasion before, and than I saw an inspirational picture of black and red hearts and I fell in love with the colors. Next day I was asked to make 4 dozens of valentines gift. I love them!
