Here in California, we don't have substantial 'winter' weather, especially this year we've only had a few days of light rain.  Now that it's spring, it's outside raining cats 'n dogs!  When it rains....I bake.  They go hand in hand for relaxation but it also warms up the house LOL.


So, I started out making sample cookies for Spring & Easter, trying to get a feel for what I want to do for the parties that day but the humidity seemed to affect my royal icing :(  so I wasn't too happy with the outcome.
