The only time it’s “acceptable” to cross the streams is when you lean in and do a Marvel vs DC party! Happy birthday to Koah, Mako, and Kenji!

Which team are you on? Marvel or DC?

In honor of the launch, here’s a quick throwback to the cake I did for an Apollo 11 50th Anniversary party!

(For real though, did you know I’ve still been decorating? Like this whole time? I’m really really bad at social media guys… but I’m still here. Promise.)

Anyways have some cutie lil St. Paddy’s Day baby cookies

*clomps over in my giant snow boots*

The entirety of this theme was because I wanted to give a narwhal a candy cane horn. That’s it that’s the set. Also I added a penguin even though that’s the South Pole. Don’t come for me, maybe he’s visiting friends for the holidays.

The funny thing is, these were actually planned for LAST year but didn’t happen. It’s almost like the universe knew we were going to get snow every three days for the past month and have it feeling like a proper 90s Chicago winter. I’m a big big fan, though I’m definitely in the minority. 😂

Aaaaanyways, Orders are officially Live and I’ll take them through the 15th! Each set of 12 is $50. Please be sure to tell me if you’re needing shipping or would like local pickup.

I hope you’re all staying warm and diving deep into the holiday season if you celebrate. We all could use a little festive coziness right now.

This week I worked with to help celebrate a new Chicago facility and their official certification as a B Corp! If you’re in the market for sustainable, bio-based, eco-friendly laundry and cleaning products, give them a try!

This Saturday come on out to The Firefly Market at DuPage Fairgrounds!

Firefly has long been one of my favorite markets. It’s always got a ton of local artists and makers in a huge variety, food trucks, a coffee cart, and live music. I’ve gotten some of my favorite items there, from vintage decor, jewelry, and even a ceramic dachshund vase. 😂

I always said “maybe one day” to selling there and decided to just take the plunge. I’ll be there with decorated cookies perfect for graduation or teacher gifts, a few Mothers Day sets (for those of you still scrambling!) as well as huge drop cookies, chewy caramels, gourmet marshmallows, and more! Come say Hi!

Allowing these cookies from last week to jump the queue a bit because, well, look at em!

I took on a family order for Pokemon card cookies and decided to run with it and see how I’d do. I dont use an edible printer, so these all had to be hand painted with food coloring. Many (*many*)(no really, so many) hours later, I was so proud of how they came out!

Well hello there! It’s been a minute, as I’m sure you’ve all noticed. Lots of life happening right now and I’m the worst...

Well hello there! It’s been a minute, as I’m sure you’ve all noticed. Lots of life happening right now and I’m the worst at social media so… *throws confetti*

At least we can all curl up and watch some Bluey, though, right? With….uh…. the kids…. Right?
