Happy Thanksgiving!

Is it really Thanksgiving tomorrow? Did we just light our first night of Hanukkah candles? Were we eating latkes while a pumpkin pie was baking in the oven? What is happening?! 

I sure do love this wacky holiday season! 
I made a few sets of Thanksgiving cookies to share with family, friends, and the internet.

A classic collection
A cute and wholesome couple

Turkeys

More Turkeys
And what celebration is complete without Hello Kitty?
These Pilgrim Kittys come bearing delicious dishes for the holiday meal.
I hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving full of appreciation, love, comfort, friendship and pie, lots of pie. 
Thanks for looking and thanks for reading. I am thankful for the support of friends and strangers. 
I am eternally thankful for my Sweet Eddie and all the love we share. I am thankful that he lets me take over our home with mountains of cookie decorating accessories, supplies, gadgets, and gizmos.

It's Thanksgivukkah, Baby!

What happens when you combine the dreidel spinning, latke frying, miracle oil celebration of Hanukkah with the turkey stuffed, gravy slathered, family gathering of Thanksgiving?

This year Thanksgiving and Hanukkah will converge on November 28th to create the epic holiday hybrid of Thanksgivukkah. It is going to be quite the event! This holiday matchup won't occur for another 75,000+ years, so now is the time to embrace it.  Since we live happily in baby land with our sweet little niece Daisy, I thought I would kick off my holiday cookies with a happy baby Thanksgivukkah.  I will take any opportunity to use that onesie cookie cutter.


Take one Hanukkah Baby...

Add a little Thanksgiving Baby...

And you get the giblet filled miracle:  Thanksgivukkah Baby!
I know one little sweetie pie who is ready to celebrate.
Hooray for Thanksgivukkah! I am excited, are you?
