Cookie Smackdown Giveaway – Vote for me!

December 18, 2012 Leave a Comment

Cookie Smackdown | HandsOccupied.com

Yesterday, RecipeLion invited me to be a part of their Cookie Smackdown. Well they really invited my grandma’s delicious sandbakkel cookie recipe, but I mean, just look at how pretty they are…

Sandbakkels | HandsOccupied.com

All of the recipes in the contest look awesome, with treats ranging from Irish Soda Bread Cookies to Rum Balls. Mine appear to be the only Scandinavian candidate. If you’d like to help me out by voting for my cookies in the contest (they made #9 on the list!), that would be amazing. You do have an incentive to vote, by the way – each vote equals an entry to win a copy of Betty Crocker’s The Big Book of Cookies cookbook.

If you look closely, you’ll see I’m casually k If you look closely, you’ll see I’m casually knitting from one sweater into another here, no big deal. (What can I say, I lost a game of yarn chicken. 😂) I almost didn’t post this because I was worried someone might have some nonsense to say about my ability to knit. Then I remembered I can’t care about that. Silly me, I almost forgot myself!

Speaking of which, dang it’s good to have my mental health back consistently after the past couple of years. The anxious parts of my personality are just chilling, rather than constantly screaming that my work isn’t good enough to share. The confident parts of me that matter have me creating (and starting to share my creations & process with strangers and friends) again!
