Think::

Don't you think that that those alphabet cookies are so under utilized. 
Lets chat about some ideas on how to use these cookies.
I find them at Costco and Safeway.

• on a birthday cake to spell the birthday gals name
• glue on paper to write a love note
• take a photo of the word Thank You and make some thank you cards
• put in pancakes

Can't wait to hear what you come up with.

You're ON Pink::

That fabulous photo is killing me. I love this!!! Here are my ideas for these cookies:

• Quiz your preschoolers about what letters are missing from the alphabet

• Whimsical placecards for a dinner party

• One cookie per cupcake lined up to spell stuff,  like "congrats" or "Love You"

• Take photo of cookies spelling "cookies" for label on cookie jar

• Frost words to car or front door for friendly prank 

• Using clear glass bowls, put kids initials standing along side of bowl, then fill with pudding for personalized pudding

• Photograph "me luv cookies" to print on shirt to be a cookie monster

• When serving another dessert, monogram your cake stand or dessert plates with them 

• Use them on grahm cracker "paper" like the BOO I did before for Halloween

• Write a message in your trifle dessert

• Have a family contest to see who can spell the most words from a plate of cookies. Then eat them.

• I wonder if you could bake them into the top of a sheet cake???

• Write a biodegradable message in the snow

• Float them in your hot chocolate

• Write "I'm Sorry" on your husbands pillow when you have a fight then eat them together in bed. :)

My head is spinning after this. Total brain buzz. Thanks for the assignment. It is taking the edge off the leaf quilt. You know how I get when I sew. :}

 Let do this "Creative Storm" thing again sometime. Anyone else got any ideas they  want to share?

Hmm. I have never seen these cookies! But I do have teeny alphabet cookie cutters. Very clever.

I followed you over here from "everything pink" and LOVE all your creative ideas. This will be FABULOUS for a shower I am having this weekend to spell out the baby's name! I haven't seen the cookies before. What brand are they??
Thanks for so much inspiration!

trader joe's also has these, no?

i love the ideas you came up with.

i want to use them as "name place" markers for our daisy girl scout meeting. i think the girls would love it!

thanks for sharing, gals. you really are too awesome.

and if i had any skills, i would be doing the leaf quilt.

I.love.this. I hope I can find them!

I immediately thought of them standing up in frosting (like a candle) to add dimension to a cake.

Pipe white frosting on to add contrast.

Dip them in white chocolate on some kind of winter scape.

Spell something on the roof of a gingerbread house.

Use them as a text msg on a cell phone cake for a teenager.

Draw a big crossword puzzle on butcher paper and fill in the words as a family.

A Valentine's word search for your sweetie.

Use them to help your new reader sound out words and re-arrange the letters to make new words.

Make and "alphabet soup" with pudding.

Take pictures of words for a recipe file and have each word be the divider picture for that section (cookies, pies, cakes, salads etc)

Oh Hannah...I'm giddy over your additional ideas. You are 2 Clever!!!
