Virtual Wedding Shower–Flour-de-Lis is getting hitched!

My awesome friend Samantha from Flour-de-Lis is getting married.  So a few of us decided it would be fun, since we can’t be with her, to celebrate her upcoming nuptuals with a virtual wedding shower.

If you haven’t been over to see Samantha’s cookie awesomeness, you totally should!  What’s even more extraordinary about her is that about a month ago she was hit by a car while out on her bike with her fiance, Sitha.  You would think that would slow her down, but no.  She’s continued with her cookie decorating, had the Cambodian ceremony and is still so supportive of all her cookie friends, like me!

To find the ever talented Samantha, you can pop over to her Facebook page or her blog Flour-De-Lis.

These are one of my favourite cookies from her collection:

I also won my only contest that Samantha held way back when and we’ve become friends ever since!

So for you my dear, I wish you nothing but happiness on your new adventure.  I wish I could be there for you, but alas you live too far away! Hugs and love from us here in Raleigh.  I made these and the girls promptly ate them for you!  Calorie free, it’s the best kind of gift.
