“Sugar and spice and everything nice...” Popular 19th Century Nursery Rhyme
The baby shower cookies marked the arrival of a beautiful baby girl to our family. The bibs, onesies, baby carriages, rocking horses, bottles, pacifiers, baby rattles, and rounds were a sweet reminder that wonderful things come in small packages. Her two big brothers were fascinated with the new addition and excited to have cookies to mark the occasion.
Our parish offers Baptism classes for parents who are having their babies baptized into the Church. The class runs about two hours and discusses the reasons for receiving baptism and the steps involved in the ceremony. About half way through the class, it’s time for a break...with cookies & coffee. You knew that’s where I was heading, didn’t you?
“Snips and snails and puppy dog tails...” Popular 19th Century Nursery Rhyme
These adorable little bird cookies marked the arrival of a friend’s first grandson. The bird cookies were made for my friend, who had given me the cookie cutters for my birthday the month before. She knows me so well and I wanted the arrival of her grandchild to be the first occasion for using these perfect shapes.
