Do you have a special person in your life...someone who knows you and loves you anyway? If you can sit with that person for hours and not have to say a single word, if that person just “gets” you and you “get” him/her, well, that’s your lobster. With the amount of time I spend baking and decorating cookies, I’m always happy to find one that makes me smile and these quirky lobster cookies did that for me.

I had so much fun decorating Easter sugar cookies a few weeks ago that I decided that it was time to bring out the spring cookie cutters and make a few dozen edible flowers and butterflies. What better way to bring Mother Nature’s exuberance inside than to bake cookies in shapes inspired by her and decorate them to pay homage to her designs.
