My dear friends, Jim and Brian, have been a couple for 22 years. They recently celebrated their love in a civil union and my husband and I were honored to be their witnesses. It was an unseasonably warm, fall day in October that allowed us to enjoy an outdoor luncheon amidst the bright, colorful foliage. After a long trip to celebrate the union, Jim and Brian are hosting a small reception tonight for a few friends.
Although Thanksgiving is behind us and it seems that everyone is rushing into the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season, I decided that since the ceremony was on such a beautiful day and it is still November, a collection of fall cookies would be the theme for the reception.
Wishing you many more happy years together, love you both.
A towel found at a discount store was the inspiration for my centerpiece cookie.
Thick royal icing was used to give dimension to the tree trunk and food markers were used for the initials.
