Santa’s "Circle of Friends"

A few months back, I wrote about an organization for which I volunteer called “Circle of Friends.”  The group pairs children with special needs with a buddy, and it plans fun events for everyone to do together.

At the Circle of Friends Christmas Party, we decided to have a cookie exchange. Below are pictures of my contributions to the cookie exchange (the decorations are made out of fondant, so it’s all edible).

And now I must end this post so I can go morph into Chocolate-Covered Genie for an Arabian Nights party.
Happy New Year, everyone!!!!

    Your so talented! My cookies usually don’t last long enough to decorate them. My husband and I are cookie monsters! Once again, you’re such a kind person. The world would be such a better place if everyone had a heart a fraction of the size yours is.

    I hope you are having a fabulous New Years. It sounds like you had a great Christmas.

    Your cookies are just the cutest! They are adorable. I bet the kids were just over the moon with them.

    A question – What is Sugar Cookie Tea? I am intrigued!

    I also wanted to say how much I loved your scrapbooking pages. I’m a scrapbooker too, your pages are beautiful.
