Birthday with Lots of Cookie Cutters

My son celebrated his 19th birthday last week. The problem was that he was about 700 miles away! This was the first time that he wasn't home for me to throw him a big birthday celebration. It was harder than I expected and I missed him terribly. I decided to make him a whole bunch of cookies to give out to his friends in college. And since I generally go pretty overboard with things, I made a bunch of new cookie cutters too. Thankfully my kids appreciate my craziness and they like cookies ;-)

Somehow I forgot to get a platter picture of the cookies. All that work and no platter picture. This will have to do. Get ready for lots and lots of cookies...

As you can see, I had lots of fun making so many new designs of cookie cutters. They can be found HERE

In all, I shipped 41 cookies to Nick. He said that he gave them out to friends and they were gone in a day. I'm glad they enjoyed them. He will be home for Spring Break in a few weeks. I'm so excited to see him. I wonder what I'll make for his return...

  2. I know you miss your son like crazy but I'm betting that all his college friends are delighted that he was at college for his BDay. Look at the cookie haul ;) I love the cookie with the kid, balloons and cupcake! Hope Nick had a great birthday celebration.

  5. For all parents the day of birthday of their children is very important. They want to celebrate it in a best way they can. It is a great idea which you applied for wishing your son his birthday and to show that how much you miss him. It is very loving and wonderful. Your son must be very happy. It was my daughter's birthday last month, i was also confused that what to do something very special for her. So i send some flowers as a surprise to her. They were very beautiful and my daughter was very happy by this surprise. I ordered it from postal flowers. You can read this for further information http://postalflowers.ie/delivery
