Coooooooookies Part 3

The chocolate sugar cookies were by far the leader in the weekend bake. The rolled nice, they cut nice (well after I stopped using the unicorn cutter), they baked nice, they iced nice and they tasted good.I got a pretty fair amount of cookies for the recipe too. This one has made the cut to be at the wedding, now to decide on a second cookie.

I've been asking some of the baking bloggers what I might be able to do to get prepared for my wedding. How far in advance I can bake, flood ice etc. So far nothing but I shall be going over their blogs to see if that info has already been posted. After I get some work done that is, yesterday I worked  but was fuzzy for most part of the day.

Today my dress arrives! I'm nervous to see how it turned out since I ordered it direct from China - not through any bridal store. UPS tells me it'll deliver before days end. I'm can't say I'm not sqeeeeeing already.

We ordered our rings last night off Etsy. I can only wear a few metals as most of the lower karat golds etc eat my skin. The lovely ladies at Forest of Jewels in Riverbend Square in Edmonton were quite helpful in getting proper ring sizes. We had both forgotten ours from when we got our engagement rings. They had nice thick bands to try since our bands are going to be 1/4". Made it easier & made me more confident in the size. It's nice that the ring maker we chose goes into 1/4 sizes.

*big sigh*

We ordered our centre pieces, picked up our guestbook stuff (well we need to pick up pens, but that can wait until May), ordered the correct favor bag size. Now I just need to get all the icing stuff for the cookies. I know I'm stressing out over it but I'm glad I'm doing this (with the help of my maids & my sweetie) because I like the thought of giving something homemade as a favor over just tossing a bunch of candies in a box. It's more personal to me.

Today I shall see if I have time at work to make stencils, if I can find something to make them out of first.

Cheers!
