March's Charity for the Year of Giving

With the natural disasters hitting many countries lately, and the political unrest hitting North Africa and the Middle East in the recent weeks, I've decided to split the donation between two charities, Americares and American Red Cross .  Both charities strive to bring humanitarian aide to countries experiencing natural disasters and other crises.  If you aren't in the mood for cookies, please consider giving to these charities on your own volition.  We are all in this together and together we can make a positive difference.  Thank you.

Finishing up February business

Thanks to everyone who placed orders in February, Danielle's Delectable Cookies was able to donate $55 to the Children's Miracle Network in the Year of Giving!  Here are some of those orders:

First up, Tyler's 12th Birthday, which was a bowling party.  Bowling & Ohio go together like chocolate & peanut butter:

Next up, an order for an Irish Step Dancing school fundraiser.  I tried to recreate the actual outfits of the girls on the cookies, but had to simplify it a little bit:

Finally, for a 2nd birthday party, I made some animals in primary colors.  The rhino is my fav:
As you can see, I had a varied month full of new designs.  It was a fun month!  I'm looking forward to what you all can bring me in March!
