mmm cookie time.

I love to bake and thanks to Alycia at Crowley Party I made some very delicous homemade oreos. And all my friends loved them.

and they were super easy.

real, moist chocolate cookies.

sandwiched with delicious cream cheese frosting.

they were so yummy, but so rich that just one was enough for me.

I wish that I could just bake and craft all day. And then send them in the mail to all my friends. Here's the recipe, you should really try them for yourself.

There aren't enough hours in a day.

Seriously, there are not enough hours in each day. That is how I've been feeling for about the last week now. I feel like its so hard to get all the things I want to done every day, and I don't know why this is. I only work part-time. Maybe I've been spending too much time crafting...but I certainly don't want to cut down my craft time, I love my crafting time. Or maybe I'm just being a little lazy, I do that sometimes. Well today, I actually did get a few things done and crossed off my list. One of those things was blogging, another was going for a run, and I actually cleaned my room today, well I started to but I made significant progress. My room was seriously a disaster area.

So I have a few pictures of my garlands (they didn't come out that great though) that I promised I would post the other day.

I also did a little baking yesterday. My first fall-themed baking of the year. I love when its fall and I can make all kinds of pumpkin goodies! I love making pumpkin pie from scratch and decorating the pie crusts with little leaves and acorns. I made some delicious pumpkin cookies for a little fall gathering we had last night.

I'm still crossing my fingers that I'll be able to get together with Marisa sometime in the next week. One, so I can finally hear about her engagement and wedding plans. And two, so she can help me make my blog and etsy shop look a little more pretty.

Come back tomorrow for some festive fall pumpkins!

more crafts and tasty treats.

On Tuesday I made a fun little banner for the bridal shower.

I tried to make it look like cute little flags.

Her "colors" are a peachy cream and black, and I guess she wants to incorporate teal too. I liked the way it turned out. I'll string it up with clothespins on some twine.

Yesterday I made madeleines for the first time! It actually was a lot easier than I thought.

They turned out delicious and I'm so excited now that I have a madeleine pan and can make them all the time. Yum!

I also made some red velvet cupcakes!

Then I went out with some of my best girls last night. It was so much fun to all be together, which doesn't happen too often, and go out dancing the night away.
