SPRING CHOCOLATE COOKIE PARTY SUNDAY MARCH 22, 2009
In: bell dome, bench chocolate cookies, flowers 8:57:00 PM By: Celestina MarieWelcome to a yummy celebration of Spring hosted by Cielo from House in the Roses. Make sure you visit The House in the Roses to attend other wonderful parties serving chocolate cookies and tea.
So glad you could join me today for a special Spring Party. I have brought my party indoors, instead of the back porch like requested, because I have my yard under a redo of sorts and it is not ready.
So welcome to my dining room where we will have home baked chocolate cookies with piped vanilla icing and an assortment of teas.
Listen to the Spring music in the background and enjoy your tea and cookies in any comfy spot I have set just for you.
Chocolate fudge cookies served on a rose plate atop a green leaf plate style bowl and our tea is an assortment of blueberry, cherry or raspberry.
Fresh cut flowers from my garden grace the table.
Our centerpiece is a vintage rose cake pedestal topped with a bell dome that showcases my vintage robin, overlooking her nest adorned with roses.
Tea will be served from another very old vintage tea pot, given to me many years ago by my mother. I love this tea set. Even the design is Spring inspiring.
Try a turkish delight to go with your cookie!
Perhaps you would like a cozy spot in the sitting room. I have scattered garden books and magazines to browse for planting ideas this season.
Enjoy the loveseat!!
Or this cozy spot~~
Maybe you would like to sit on the fireplace.
Or take a seat at the table.
Sitting by the side hutch is a comfy spot to chat.
Miss Beazy has even found the perfect spot to gaze out the window. Come sit on the bench, she loves to have a pat or two.
Sharing the recipe for today's cookies.
The piped icing recipe. This is a yummy icing used for decorator cookes either by spreading or piping like I have with these cookies. I used a pastry bag, but you could use a plastic sandwich bag with a cut corner to do the same thing. Food coloring can be added too.
Thank you for coming to my Spring Cookie Party. I so enjoyed to have you in my home. Remember to stop over at Cielo's to visit other participants today.
Blessings to you for the perfect season with Blue Skies being yours always.
Happy Spring, Celestina Marie

Thanks for the invite of cookies and tea. I could curl up on that loveseat and get lost in the many garden and design books. The cookies look so yummy and easy to prepare, but I'll just eat the ones you've already baked.
I always enjoy the photos you share with us of your lovely home.
Have a happy day

The cookie party looks like so much fun. I wish I could come for a visit and sit awhile and have one of your "sweet" cookies and some tea. You have so many places that would be comfy to do just that. Every decorations looks great but I love your new little bunny best. Your did a wonderful job on it.
Best wishes always,

I love what you did for the cookie party. You have so many wonderful palces to sit it would be hard to pick just one. I especially loved that sweet pup looking out the window/snoozing in the sunshine. I was late(just got to do it today) joining the party but, it looked like al of you had such fun. Your home is lovely. And where did you get those beautiful yellow roses?
Celeste,
Any opportunity to peek into the corners of your home is wonderful. Those cookies look yummy too.
Karen

Cute.. You make it so welcoming! And I love chocolate, do you remember the Norwegian kind..?
Hello Celeste. your chocolate cookie party is just lovely! I love all your little cozy places for tea and a good book! Miss Beazy looks beautiful looking out the window. I love the look of your black press back chairs with the terracotta floor. So cozy and warm.
Thank you for stopping by to visit me, the little boy doing the drawing for me is my Godchild not my grandson. My son has not left yet, he will be going to Afganistan in Jan. My Godchild is actually my sons best friends little boy. My son had no children yet. Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers for both my son and his best friend!
Bless you, Shirl

Dear Celeste,
NOW YOU HAVE DONE IT AGAIN.. love love love the sumptuous table you have set and all those cozy places with that splendid floral fabric. Even the dog looks inviting. Our little Taber would just love your dog. Wonderful and yes I would like to have about three cups of tea and just ponder life with you.
Have a Mighty and productive day.
Be well be happy.
Love and hugs,
Pat
Hi Sweetie!
Thanks for your sweet encouraging words on my work in progress!
Just love coming in a reading about what you have been up to. And I do see you have some sweet Spring decor up! Love Miss Beasley looking resting her head, looking out the window.
Did I tell that we now have a Hobby Lobby in Canton? I squealed with joy when I found out...and have been visiting often for goodies to use!
We could use your prayers. Gary is looking into changing careers and going in financial management. But its mostly commission...something we have never lived with and are unsure of this is GOD's direction! Thanks for your prayers so far. He will continue also to look in his field as well.
I might just have to try those cookies..they look YUM!!!
Hugs...Lorena
Hi Celestina, now this is my kind of party...a choclate cookie party. This is a really beautiful post and I wish I lived closer because I would come right over for this one. : )
Ruth
Well, I have a very large smile...a warm heart, and a soul filled with expectation! Nicely done!
Are there any left? Your home is lovely and everything always looks perfect!
Thank you for inviting me to your lovely Spring Tea! Your table is so beautiful and inviting! The teapot your Mom gave you is so perfect for spring and the flowers from your garden are gorgeous to say the least! I think I would like to start at the table so I can use the rose plates and smell the fragrance of the roses as we sit and chat. Then I would like to wander to the window bench and pat Miss Beazy's head for a while. And then we can move to the loveseat and talk about what we are going to plant in our gardens this year.
What fun!! Thank you Celeste!
Big hugs, Sherry
Well IF you really want to know where I want to sit???? I'm heading off to the guest bedroom sweetie,,,I'm a bit under the weather and I think a cup of tea would do nicely right there....I'll pass on the sweets for now...just that delightful tea.
Everything looks so beautiful. The cookies look delicious! Your table is set so pretty and your home is beautiful. It looks so cozy and comfy. I am going to try your cookie recipe soon.
Hugs,
Lee Laurie
Such a lovely Spring party! I thought I would enjoy sitting in the black chair w/ pretty bunny pillow, til I saw that Miss Beazy was closer to the bench, so you just KNOW where I would end up!!
The cookies look delish, but now I'm intrigued by the Turkish Delights!! What are they?
Love you,
