Treats from the kitchen: July

July was a non-stop cookie baking month. Every time I turned around I needed to bake another dozen or two. It wasn’t all just cookies over here, there were lots of other tasty treats too…

We made tasty Rainbow cupcakes on a rainy Summer day.

I make a big batch of Sugar Dumplings whenever I serve Chicken Chow Mien.

We have a crazy schedule ahead of us for the month so far, I hope I can keep it all together.
