tournament

little sister played in a multi-day tournament about an hour away with the jv team.  she had games on thursday at 6:20pm, friday at 12:30pm, and saturday at 9:50am & 1:20pm.  with temps in the 30s-low 40s, i am sure the sun felt heavenly!

swim & dive cookies

i got a request last friday for cookies for a swim & dive district meet.  so i got to designing, baking, and decorating 32 cookies, 4 different designs.  i think they turned out great!

lady lobos v mustangs

the team traveled about an hour away to a 4:30 match-up against the mustangs and pulled out a win.  little sister had a little bit of play time, which is good considering she has been out the last week+ quarantining with covid.  she was so happy to be back out of the field.

only 8 decades old

happy birthday to my dad today - the big 8-0!

i made and sent a cool t-shirt and sash.  he really liked it.  he also enjoyed a fruit bouquet from my sister and my mom's german chocolate cake.  sounds like a pretty good deal to me!

lady lobos v cougars

 

our girl had her first true jv game tonight in some rather chilly weather.  she played a part of both halves and the matched ended 0-0.  she is playing with a few of her fusion friends and enjoying every minute!

new baby cookies

my cousin in oregon welcomed a new baby boy in late december, so i decided to create a baby boy set to bake, decorate and send.  

happy new year (cookies)

the first cookie set of the new year is:

new year cookies!

i tried out 2 new recipes - chocolate chip roll-out cookies

- and lemon poppy seed cookies.

the lemon ones could use more lemon flavor, but the chocolate chip ones turned out excellent.
