I finished up these cute little guys today. I also did another order of 48 more traditional "heart" shaped cookies for a resident Valentine's Day party at our local retirement residence. I think these are my favourite though and gave me the opportunity to try a painting technique that I hadn't done before.
This order will mark the end of "How The Cookie Crumbles." I will be taking a break as I get ready to head back to school (online) for the next 18 months and prepare for a change of direction in my life. Change is definitely good and, in this particular case, long overdue. Although it's been an absolute blessing to be able to work from home for the past 11 years, watch my kids grow and be present in their daily lives it's time to focus on the next 10 years and where Adam and I want to be.....hopefully retiring and taking the "Freedom 55" option! So yes, change is on the horizon and I am nervous, excited and slightly afraid.......but also ready for the challenges the future holds. Wish me luck!
