December Already?!

It didn't even occur to me that is was December until I started reading all of my networking sites this morning! ARGHHH! It was bound to happen. I am BEHIND. I have a cookie I could post for today, but I just don't like him...poor Peanut...maybe he can hang out on my Flickr Page. As for me, I will have to resort to plan B today. I have a lot of old favorite cookie collections that haven't made it back onto the new blog. I told myself that if I ever got dreadfully behind, I would use it as an opportunity to get those back up. So...here you go.
I named these cookies the Opal collection after my great-grandmother Opal who used to make crocheted satin Christmas ornaments, that looked much like these! Neither she nor my mom ever successfully taught me to knit or crochet, but I sort of made my own way, I crochet with icing, LOL!

Since I feel bad for letting everyone down on the cookie-a-day thing, I plan on making it up to everyone! Stay tuned for a giveaway, and a tutorial. December has really put me in the giving mood, and I am planning giveaways all month long!

  1. We all have Plan B days which is why that is my company's name, besides it's also my name. The cookies are beautiful.

  5. Ahhhh, an oldie but goodie and one of my favorites! It's the first cookie of yours that I tried to replicate. Of course it was no where near as good as yours. I see that design pop up on other's blogs/flickr pages all the time and I always think of you. :o)
