We met in our first year design studio and have become close friends ever since. Kelley is still an architecture student and Lisa just graduated from industrial design. This blog began when we were roommates and although we live apart, we still carry on our "soul sister" ways. This is our collection of the yummy food we make and eat.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Happy Valentine's Day everyone! So I kinda love Valentine's day, maybe because my birthday is in a week (*hint *hint) or maybe because its just fun. For the past 4 yrs every Valentine's Day I give out treats and cheesy cards. This year I gave my studio sugar cookies and Bieber cards. Now I wanted everyone to get 2 cookies so I had to make a double batch which almost killed my mixer but it survived.
For the icing, I just used a around 7 cups of powdered sugar (enough for 3 batches of cookies), 2 tsps of vanilla and enough milk until its just came together. That "recipe" has been my go to for years of cookie decorating and it never disappoints.
The chocolate cookies were chocolate cinnamon and were absolutely amazing. They were for a "GALentines" potluck and everyone loved them. Seriously, you MUST make them. I added twice the amount of cinnamon and it was the perfect "spicy" flavor. I'm sure they would be delicious dipped in chocolate but I had a lot of extra icing.
Well that is my tale of two cookies. Happy Valentine's Day again and hope everyone spends the day with people they love, enjoy!
