Birthday Treats

Today is my niece's birthday, and like my daughter, she is a college student preparing for finals. I thought she might appreciate some sweet sustenance, so I made her some chocolate chip cookies. I bought an old-fashioned looking container to put them in, but wanted to dress it up a little. Because she likes pink, I had an idea of what I wanted to put on the front, and found the perfect thing on Free Pretty Things For You. I found the image here. Isn't it sweet? Thank you Keren for all the wonderful graphics you share on your site. Here are the birthday goodies all packaged up and ready to take to my niece. Happy Birthday Tara!

Betsy Anne,

Aren't these the best kinds of gifts...to give and to receive? The commercial was right when they sang "nothin' says lovin' like something from the oven." As far as I'm concerned my family can love me with cookies all year long! =D

When my mother in law died, my daughter's best friend's mother gave us a cookie jar filled with homemade chocolate chip cookies. It was one of the best (most comforting gifts) we received. Love your sweet container.

What a wonderful Auntie you are! I love how you packaged them. I have lots of those old time jars, and store most of my pantry items in them. I must zip on over now to check out those printables!!! She will love her sweet treat!!!

Hi, What a lovely gift....and more so considering you have added a very personal touch! Now isn't that sort of thing the very best of presents where giver and receiver both enjoy it.

Keep well

Aw, how sweet! Can I be your niece, too? Ha-ha! No, I can only have cookies on the week end so those would tempt me too much! I can turn down store bought anything but home made? Forget it!

I've been surfing on-line more than 3 hours these days, yet I by no means discovered any fascinating article like yours. It's
beautiful price enough for me. In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made just right content as you did, the web shall be much more helpful than ever
before.

I started on COPD Herbal treatment from Ultimate Life Clinic, the treatment worked incredibly for my lungs condition. I used the herbal treatment for almost 4 months, it reversed my COPD. My severe shortness of breath, dry cough, chest tightness gradually disappeared. Reach Ultimate Life Clinic via their website www.ultimatelifeclinic.com . I can breath much better and It feels comfortable!

I was diagnosed about 5 years ago with HIV and have lived taking ARV and thought of having Herbal medicine to cure this disease completely. I wouldn't be able to bear Vomiting and my tongue would go white because of these diseases called HIV/Aids. I learned to live with it but I have definitely prayed and had hands laid on me, My friends at work knew about my HIV Status so on a faithful day my friend Hannah talk to me about this great man called Dr Itua From west African because my friend Hannah is from West African too she came to acquire degree here in South Carolina, I accepted the challenge and contacted Dr Itua Herbal Center...drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com also chats on Whatsapp Number.+2348149277967. Then he delivered his Herbal medicine to me which was labeled as Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cure For HIV/Aids, I took it as he instructed. After two weeks I went to the test and I was tested Negative. I'm still writing on every blog site related to the following diseases such as HIV/Aids, Herpes Virus, Shingles, Hepatitis B/C, Because he cures this kind of disease.
