Recipe: Decorated Sugar Cookies

I love making sugar cookies for an occasion! Not only are they very relaxing to decorate but it is also easy to get creative with shapes, colors and sprinkles.

I like to make my cookies over 2 days. A day to make the dough, bake the cookies and prep the icing. The other to mix the colors and decorate. I have found that doing it all in one day can be done but it is a long day, especially if you are getting fancy in decorating them!

Below are photos of some of the cookies I have done this year! For Fall, Halloween and Christmas. The day before I bake I like to look across the internet for festive decoration ideas, they are endless!

In the link below is my recipe for sugar cookies and royal icing for you to view, download and print via google docs. Below are some photos from past holiday baking to give you some ideas!
Happy Baking!

Travel: Pittsburgh,PA - Carnegie Library

Since I moved to Pittsburgh in 2015 it has been on my list to got to the Carnegie Library in Oakland! This year I made it a goal to get a Carnegie Library card and explore some of the free services they offer. I know we have great libraries in Pittsburgh but I had no idea what they offer. My friend and I took a tour of the main library in Oakland - is was a perfect way to learn about the libraries history, how to navigate it and the services and resources they have. My favorite part of the tour was learning about the history of the library, how and when it was built (1895) and how it has changed through the decades. It was also great to see all of the historic photos they have of the library and surrounding land. The photo below is of a one of the larger vaulted rooms in the library and it is said that the centers of the molding once held windows that were then covered during WW2 to not attract attention from above. The tour also took us to the room that was later added above
