February offers & designated charity

For a limited time only, during the month of February, the month of love, I am offering chocolate sugar cookies in addition to my regular sugar cookies.  Why give your sweetheart an ordinary box of chocolates when you can give them personalized chocolate sugar cookies?  Valentine's Day is a little over 2 weeks away, so get your orders in now!

Keeping with the Year of Giving, I will be donating a percentage of the profits to the Children's Miracle Network, which not only provides funds to the Akron Children's Hospital but several children's hospitals throughout the state of Ohio.  Think about it; for Valentine's Day, you could give your significant other some beautiful & delicious cookies, and some children a few miracles.  How awesome is that?

January cookies

This month, 49 out of the 50 states have had snow on the ground on some point.  Everywhere but Florida.  Here in Ohio, we've had our fair share.  Rather than making snowflakes, as anyone would need a reminder, I made some hats & gloves.  Eat them with hot chocolate and you have a warm & sweet ending to a chilly day.

I am an unabashed Spice Girls fan, as is my dear friend Scott.  Our birthdays are 10 days apart, so in celebration of his day, I sent him some old school Spice Girls cookies.  Spice up your life!!

A Year of Giving

Since 2010 was such a great year, I am looking to share my blessings with others this new year.  My idea is to have a designated charity each month that will receive a set percentage of the profits for that month.  Thus, not only are you giving someone a dozen beautiful & delicious sugar cookies, but you are also helping those in need and making the world a little brighter.  This idea is in its infancy, so I am open to suggestions for charities to designate for future months; they can be local, national or international.  Please feel free to leave a comment with your suggestion, and please spread the word.  For January, I am considering the Akron-Canton Regional Food Bank and the Cleveland Food Bank.  Let's change the world, one sugar cookie at a time.

Happy New Year!

I would like to take this chance to thank everybody who supported Danielle's Delectable Cookies this past year, whether it was through placing orders, taste testing, or words of encouragement.  You have made 2010 a fantastic year for me and I am ever so grateful to all of you.  Thank you, and may 2011 be a fantastic year for all of us!
