The Cookie Gallery is HOT!!! - Page 2

post #16 of 57

I was driving down the interstate the other day and saw a billboard that said the lottery was up to 173 million. My first thought? If I were to win that kind of money, I'd offer to pay transportation and hotel costs for the first 50 cookie decorators to come to town. I couldn't think of a better way to spend free money! (Too bad I don't buy lottery tickets...I might have to change that). A cookie convention would be awesome!!!

I have not had a lot of time to browse the galleries-somedays it is just hit or miss and I have just a few moments to look and comment, but I agree that the cookies being posted lately have been fabulous! I just need another couple of hours in the day to peruse all of the pictures. Great work everyone!! thumbs_up.gif

I can't say I am in the same class with a lot of the names mentioned here, but I totally LOVE the cookie gallery! I will yell at my dh to come look at a cookie and then I'll just gush over it like it was a million dollars or something.

You ladies are true artist and thanks for sharing your talent with all of us! icon_smile.gif

Wow, Gemini! You are so sweet to think of us cookie(ers) if you won the lotto! You could do a personal demo for us on your awesome 3-D cookies and all of your other amazing designs!

Yankeegal: I always look forward to seeing your cookies. If it says "cookies by jodie", it almost always jumps right into my favs! (That's a lot, considering you have 6 pages!)

I talk about cookies so often, my 16-year-old son knows a lot about my cookie world. He'll throw out terms like "NFSC, RI, "is that a tip 2?", who did that, TracyLH?"( icon_biggrin.gif ), "has shiney posted?" (as in shiney zebra icon_biggrin.gif ),and "That one looks like fondant!" My husband just quietly supports me icon_smile.gif

Me too. It's about a 9 hour drive from me to Charlotte MI. I don't know where that's at compared to Berkley.

OK! I am soooo there! I'd not only LOVE to get a demonstration from Gemini - but would love to just hugg the so many necks who've helped me, encouraged me, and always been so willing to share their expertise with me! I truly admire so many here!
And maybe I should start playing the Lotto - so when we leave Michigan we can all come to my house in Sunny (yeah right!) Florida by the beach!
Coz if we're gonna be traveling ... we might as well keep going icon_wink.gif

How fun....a traveling cookie convention! And how nice to know you'd like a cookie demo from me. I'm giving my first cookie decorating class this fall and I'm already freaking out about it. What if I bomb? Look for future posts asking for advice on how to organize the class...I've already picked yankeegal's brain for all her ideas and she was a treasure trove!

Sorry missed your post. I wish it was a little warmer, not that warm. I am not ready for short weather. LOL It is freezing here in PA. We had wind gust up to 40 mph. Today it's still breezy. That wind is what kills ya.

No Gemini - Id not LIKE to get one - I'd LOVE to get one!!
U a bomb?! No way! If you just do what you are soooo talented doing - there is NO way for you to "bomb"! (but now thanx to u I have that dumb song from the 80's stuck in my head - YOU DROPPED THE BOMB ON ME - BABY BABY!) *ARGH
At least you have till the Fall ... lots of time to get organized (and hopefully time for your hair to come back in after pulling it all out being stressed!) icon_wink.gif
I have cofidence that you will prevail!!

Pebbles, you are so sweet! And I know its not polite to "toot your own horn" - but you really need to add yourself into the category of awesome cookie decorators!! I agree, its delightful to open the cookie gallery and see what everyone has come up with next and to share information. I've always thought it would be so fun to meet you all - so I'm in for the convention! icon_wink.gif
