lovely little details

please go over and check out the beautiful blog, lovely little details, today. jacin is an events planner in san francisco and has a great blog series called mason jar sunday. i am beyond thrilled to have my mason jar cookies featured there today! thanks jacin!

i see cookies

remember that famous line from the movie "the sixth sense?" (i won't write it because it's a little gruesome for a cookie blog). well, i see cookies...everywhere, all the time, in everything. it could be a dish towel, a kids tee shirt, wallpaper, a quilt, a card. i get inspired by so many things (occupational hazard, i guess). so instead of doing laundry or dishes, i make cookies. cookies just for me to look at because they make me happy. so here is my latest inspiration as my kids ask me "mom, do i have any clean underwear?"

my newest obsession is vintage aqua mason jars. they are just gorgeous.

so, i tracked down a wonderful rare mason jar cookie cutter and made this...



wouldn't this make a charming gift for that special friend? perhaps a mason jar filled with flowers or that cute dishtowel and a cookie to match?

more inspired cookies coming soon. what inspires you?
