Happy Holidays From Your Dorky Opera Baker!

Saturday, December 8, 2007 5:36:56 AM

Since I was unable to use my computer, I decided to get some baking done. I had a lot of fun, and some of the time was actually glad my computer was out of commission because I enjoyed my time away from it so much.

I decided to bake some Gingerbread cookies the other day. I love doing that...it's so fun! I took pictures along the way, so here we go...

Here are a few raw Gingerbread cookies all ready to be shoved in the oven...


...and here they are getting all heated up in the oven...


Once I got all of them finished baking, the decorating got underway. I had SO much fun! Here's a picture of a few generic looking Gingerbread men/women...


I suddenly got an idea! idea I decided to decorate a cookie for each of my friends...or at least as many friends as I could with the amount of cookies I had left over. The next pictures are the result of that idea...

Here's the mother of all the other cookies. She's the Opera cookie!..


Here's Sarah's cookie (All of the girls got hearts)...


This one didn't turn out very well, but here is Alla's cookie...


Next is Jenn's cookie...


Of course, you can't have Jenn without Gabs, so here's one for Gabs as well...


The last girlie one is Kim's...


Now for the guys!

Here's Carlos' cookie...


Here's a cookie for my other friend named Carlos. He's not an Opera member, though...


Next is Nic's cookie!...


And, of course, here's Amir's...


Now we get to Charlie's cookie. I put "Bama" on it just for him lol...


Even the smartass, LC, got a cookie!...


Where there's one smartass, there is bound to be another...hence Dennis' cookie...


Now we get to David AKA Clean's cookie...


...and then comes Marcus...


Next is Rick's cookie...


Lastly, here is a cookie for P2...


Of course, I had to take a picture of the whole gang together...


And the very last picture is of all the cookies I made...even the generic ones...


If you don't see your name up there, please don't go getting all offended. A person can only make so many gingerbread people before they get tired out, ya' know?! I'm sorry that you guys don't get to eat them, but at least you can see that I was thinking of you. My kids will enjoy eating your cookie carcasses immensely! lol

Happy Holidays, Everyone! love

Oopsie Daisy!Shit Son!

Jenngflladydeath Saturday, December 8, 2007 4:56:42 PM

Angel----his almost brought a tear to my eye. Seeing us all lying there together... The special girls and all AND I MEAN ALL the boys...was so sweet and really put into perspective the group of us.

I agree--I dunno why but it brought quite a bit of tears..such lil jesters mean so much to a person and even the smile and lil disign of a cookie ..and to know Someone is thinking of you....I have been so blessed with meeting who I have..and to have P2 and Karen In my life, is unbelieveable and the best feeling in the world.

Sarah angel292005 Saturday, December 8, 2007 5:04:55 PM

Now let's physiologically diagnose the way she arranged them on the table....sherlock

Jenngflladydeath Saturday, December 8, 2007 5:07:03 PM

OMFG! I want my cookie!! hahaha.
That's so cool! you are very special in your own way and that's why i love you as my own sister. smile

KarenNerak Saturday, December 8, 2007 8:06:22 PM

Alla - I'm a cookie?! bigeyes

Amir - I always think about you guys. heart

LC - I don't remember which order they got eaten in. There are actually a few left...but I know for a fact that I ate you because I laughed whilst ripping your limbs off. lol

Nic - I'm happy that I could warm your heart. Consider it returning the favor as you warm my heart on a nearly daily basis. heart

Sarah - Awww!! heart I'm moved that you're moved! And you're right - it was kinda cool to visually see the whole group of us there on my table...while my mouth watered. lol

David - You have a ginormous round head?! bigeyes

J - I'm glad you dig 'em...and Gabs, too! bigsmile I heart you, too!


Carlos - I actually did think of shipping these cookies out, but I figured that by the time they hit their destination, they'd be pretty gross and nasty looking. So the kids, Lonnie, and I have been devouring them instead. bigsmile I love you, too, my brother from another mother! love


Regarding the arrangement of the cookies - I sorta arranged them in a particular way, but not really. I mean, I put Opera in the middle because she is the mother cookie...and I had to put J & Gabs close together since they are a package deal...but I didn't really give it too much thought. wink

Nicolas Borgsmidtnopanic Saturday, December 8, 2007 8:18:48 PM

See ya soon Karen:heart:

KarenNerak Saturday, December 8, 2007 8:20:20 PM
