Our Lucky Charms..in cookie form

Happy Friday Cookie Lovers!
I was honored to be asked to be part of
group project coordinated by the
amazingly sweet Melissa of
Simply Sweets by Honeybee.

She asked us each to "cookie' our
lucky charm.

Cool idea huh?

I went right to work..

Trying to find the perfect way
to "cookie" my lucky charm.

But there was a problem,
I really could not think of anything to do.


I don't have a lucky necklace, or spoon.

I don't have a lucky rabbit's foot or pen.


Ruh Roh!

Shaggy..we have a problem.

So...I did what any good cookier does,
I turned to my friends.

After 8 million text messages, emails and Facebook messages,

I came to realize that I DO have a lucky charm.

Something that when I put it on...

I have super human powers.

I have the ability to bake and decorate
mass amounts of cookies in a single weekend.

I have the ability to work a full time job,
take care of a home, a husband,
and a very special son.

I have the ability to ability to fight evil!

Well...not really...but you get the idea!

So...what is my lucky charm?





 Aren't I just styling?

It is my Wonder Woman Shirt!

Collin got me this shirt....I am not sure why,
but he and his dad went shopping one day, and he said it would be
perfect for me...to wear when I decorate.  He was going
through a "super hero" phase, and was kinda sorta obsessed with all thing
super hero.

So...I thanked him and hung it up.

Then..one day, I had a meeting at his school...and I was so
nervous, major changes were coming..and I was a wreck.

So...I did what any women does..I asked my son to pick out
my clothes for the day.

Imagine my surprise, when he came out of my closet with this shirt!

But, like a good mom, I put on my shirt, and went to the meeting.

And the meeting went GREAT!

I was happy....Collin was happy...the school was happy.

SO...from that day forward...It became my

LUCKY SHIRT!

When I have to decorate a stressful cookie,
I wear this shirt.

When I have to bake and decorate
50 dozen cookies in a single weekend,
I wear this shirt.

When I have to work all day,
only to come home, fix dinner, and work on cookies,
I wear this shirt.

So....Now I had a lucky charm...

and now..my lucky charm is a cookie!
