shake n' bake

This week I had the great pleasure of visiting my newlywed friend Lindsay. I haven't seen her since the wedding so we had a lot of catching up to do! As of lately poor Lindsay has been on a gluten free diet so we decided to try and make some gluten free sugar cookies. It definitely was an experience baking with gluten free flour but the cookies actually turned out really really good-that is after we added the frosting and sprinkles! Lindsay also just got the new game Just Dance for the Wii so we played that while the cookies were in the oven and it's probably my new favorite form of exercise!

Here are some pics of our baking adventure...

I also stayed up last night making valentine sugar cookies for the two families I babysit and adore. The recipe I used made so much more dough then I expected so after 3 dozen I got tired of cutting out all of those little hearts so I made 4 huge butterflies-one for each little girl-worked out perfect!

I would absolutely LOVE to have my own bakery one day...
