Holiday Sugar cookie recipe and decorating tips

Who doesn't love sugar cookies? I could eat a whole batch in one sitting myself! Well, thanks to my favorite blog "Tip Junkie" I will get to make some from scratch this year. Watch out because we may just have an earthquake since I will attempt to bake and not burn my cookies this year. I will be using a sugar cookie recipe from the blog The girl who ate everything she has great recipes and great tips for NOT burning your cookies LOL!

 Then, I will attempt my hand at decorating our sugar cookies which, is right up my alley. Now this I'm pretty sure I can do. I'm not as talented or as OCD as one would need to be to create such cookie masterpieces as the cookie decorating master over at Bake at 350 but I will give it a go. I MAY even let the kids help : 0 just kidding I'll make a separate batch for me to decorate : )

 If our cookies come out even remotely as nice as some of these then, I will post pics, If not then, I will also post pics so you can enjoy a good laugh at my expense.
Please feel free to post links to your yummy delicious recipes. I would love to try something new.

Happy baking to you all,
Shawna

Easy Halloween Cupcake Designs

 I've been on the hunt for some super spooky Halloween cupcake ideas for two different Halloween events and found a great post on Tip Junkie ( Have I mentioned how much I LOVE her blog?!) which led me to My Cake School's post - Goulish Goodies I'm thinking about making either the pumpkin cupcake (click on a picture for more details)

or the Spider cupcake since they look the easiest an I'm pretty lame when it comes to baking.

 I'll post pics of mine...hopefully they'll be as cute as these. Keep your fingers crossed : )
