Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cookies, cookies, cookies! :)

Chocolate chip cookies anyone?

How about TRIPLE chocolate chip?

For baking I like to use Ghiradelli chips.

If I'm making a lot and I see a sale sure I'll use another but honestly for taste, it's Ghiradelli for me! :)

For these cookies I used milk chocolate, white chocolate, and semi-sweet chips.

Who can resist cookie dough?

Definite childhood favorite that I've never grown out of!

My mother in law told me about a contest for the best cookie recipe, so I figured I'd try it out.

I have to make the cookies again but for the first try,

I'm pretty happy with the result!

I will post the recipe once I have reached :perfection:

Stay tuned...

Under bloggy construction!!

I wasn't feeling my old layout..

I actually found this site and got a pre-made theme from

Delicious Design Studio

Until they start taking orders I guess this will do, maybe.. I'm trying to find my niche in the blog world..

Thanks for your patience :)

I'm in the process of making my own header, buttons, and what not..

Wish me luck, any feedback (positive-negative) is appreciated! :)

Light box?

I love to take pictures of my cupcakes but lets be honest how many days are beautiful and sunny?

Not much, especially when I have the time to bake it's always dark by the time I'm done.

I was shopping around for a light box, which can be anywhere from $50+ and not very durable if they're under $100.

Well have no fear, you can get away cheap!

Cat from 3KidsAndUs actually posted a tuturoial on how to make a light box at home for under $10!

She also posted a link from Digital Photography School which Chris and I followed all the directions from both and it came out great! :)

Things I had to purchase

-Clamp Light- can find a local hardware store

-Halogen Light Bulb

-Tape

-Box -FREE :)

-Poster Board

-White Cloth

I spent a little over $15

First you start off with a plain old box. Any size will do.

Cut each side of the box, about 2 inches from the edge.

Cut the whole top off. Make sure to tape the bottom.

Cover all of the box inside borders with white paper, I used printer paper.

Cut a poster board to fit into your box it should have a slight slant.

Cover the opening sides -not front or back- with white cloth, as well as the top.

Final product

*TIP* Scrap book paper makes great backgrounds :)

Item pictured above is a magnet from Bored Inc. :)
