The Celebration Shoppe
It is such an exciting week around here. First being honored by the Martha Stewart Dreamers Into Doers editors and now announcing that The Celebration Shoppe will be partnering with a fabulous cookie company, Sweet Tooth Cottage, to expand my custom invitations and creative party decor collections to include exclusive custom cookies. If imagination had a flavor it …
I took lots of pictures of my boys last night (our neighborhood trick-or-treat), but this picture of my sweet little four year old boy trying to read the label on a candy package made my heart hurt this morning when I was looking through them. You see, he has severe milk allergies, not lactose intolerance, but immediate sickness, burning tongue …
Each year we get together with all of our neighbors and I host our annual Halloween block party. The premise is that everyone brings their favorite Halloween or fall treat and we all reminisce about the summer and tell any plans for the upcoming winter (besides hibernation of course!). This year I used my Candy Corn collection and gave …
As all of you know, I’m a huge Better Homes & Gardens fan. Well when Dina from the Buttercream blog posted this beautiful pictorial (and this is only half of it) of the smart and yummy treat shown in the September 2010 issue of BHG (page 28 with recipe on page 212), I just knew I …
Hi everyone! I’m Amy from Living Locurto and thrilled to be guest posting today for Kim. As a fellow party girl, I thought sharing one of my favorite fall recipes would be the perfect topic for today. I served these last year at my Halloween Boofett and they were the hit of the party! Make these for any …
What are you going to do when you get a fabulous feature in Columbus Parent Magazine? Go to Disney World! Okay, it just worked out that way, but I’m still excited! I’m packing the kids up and we’re headed down to Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party this weekend. I’m not sure who is happier, them or me! I’m a …
I was browsing around for fun ideas to go with our new Harvest collection and I came upon these darling scarecrow cookies from Cindy at Skip To My Lou (she thinks the original idea might have come from Family Fun magazine). I love how there is minimal icing work needed to create such a cute cookie. …
I’ve been so busy over the past few weeks launching new collections (candy corn, harvest and spooked pumpkin) that I’ve not had time to post about all the fun things we have planned for my oldest son’s sixth birthday this weekend, a science birthday party! For those who stop in often, you’ve likely read me ramble on …
As you likely know, we’re in the midst of designing and photographing our Harvest and Halloween collections. With Candy Corn and Spooked Pumpkin complete, we shot our new Harvest collection late last week. I’m going to share all the photography on Thursday, but until then here’s just a little peak at the fabulous cookies Sue from Sweet Tooth Cottage …
My little ones start school next week and these apple cookies and apple basket cupcakes from Bright Ideas would be perfect for a first day of school snack!
