We A-Dumbledore You!

Megan. . . Meg. . . Meggie. . . whatever name we use. . . our sweet,  great-niece is celebrating her sixteenth birthday.

A birthday celebration calls for cake (cookie style, of course!),  sixteen candles plus one for good luck, and balloons.

Musical notes for saxophone and piano playing Meg.

Anyone who is willing to declare their love for Ramen noodles by wearing this shirt with a smile on her face, has to have a "ramen noodle" cookie.

Since Meg makes deviled eggs for us at Easter using the eggs from her chickens,  I had to include a few chickens in this collection.

Harry Potter and friends, completed her collection.

There's no doubt about it, we "a-dumbledore" this girl.

Love, hugs and an eclectic set of cookies 

to celebrate Meg's special day.

Logan's 16th Birthday

  "A few of my favorite things" was the theme I chose for the cookies I made for my great-nephew's sixteenth birthday.  Musical notes, a piano, basketballs, baseballs. . .

A big thank you to Harry Potter for providing Logan with the joy of reading at a young age
and a nod to Game of Thrones, a current favorite book series.

A few math problems for the math team member.  Of course I needed a little help from my friend, Joan , a former math teacher, to create the math problems for me.

 

Logan is a big fan of video games and I know nothing about them!  I created a template for the designs and used my imagination for the placement of the buttons.

Since AP European History is Logan's current favorite class, I had to include something "really old."  I opted for the Roman Colosseum because he will be visiting Rome in a few weeks on a trip provided by the Make a Wish Foundation.  This cookie is proof to all of my friends that cookie decorating does not mean that I have any hidden artistic talent.  Hopefully, it will help Logan truly appreciate all the magnificent works of art that he will see during his trip.




Finally, some very special cookies that were wrapped separately for Logan to open privately.  His party invitation asked guests to write a recollection of a special memory of Logan.  I opted to write about heroes because the strength, courage and humor that Logan displayed during his battle with cancer has made him one of my special heroes.

 


Happy Birthday to a very special guy!

May your future be filled with good health, happiness, love, success and adventures as exciting as the ones in your books.
