My
Macaroon Weekend
turned
Fortune Cookie Weekend...
{next weekend it will be Macaroons..I promise...but I do have
a very good reason...you see I realized that this
Tuesday it is my turn to do staff devotions at my school...I had
to think quick ...... this is what I came up with}
Faith Cookies
no easy task I might add..but once I got the hang of it
I was on my merry way...with much help from my daughter
recipe here
if you want to give it a try...email me
I have a few tips that will save you some time and frustration
The message I put inside my cookie is....
Faith is being sure of what we hope for
and certain of what we do not see
{Hebrews 11:1}
After making these I know macaroons will be a breeze!
{thank you for all the words of encouragement you gave me concerning
the making of macaroons....next weekend it is!}

Macaroon or fortune cookie, you are just best at what you are doing, thanks for sharing (reminding) such beautiful message!
Will wait for the Macaroon next! : )
I'm sure it's a blessing to everyone when you do staff devotions. Your ability to share an uplifting message is apparent to all of your followers here. These are wonderful.
Have a blessed week~

Faith cookies....only you dear Koralee could think of something as wonderful as this. Spreading the Faith...much more important than macaroons...although I am sure they will be yummy and oh so lovely too.
Thanks for stopping by and liking the pics...happy to hear that you know the locations.It has taken me all week to rest up...back to school tomorrow.
Have a marvelous Monday tomorrow.

WHAT A GREAT BLESSING INDEED! You know, a colleague of mine that gets frustrated with our public school system that does not allow any discussion of faith. I say, "Perfect. That forces me to be a Christian instead of just talking about it." Harder to do, but well worth the challenge!
BISOUS BEAUTIFUL ONE! Anita
I made fortune cookies years ago and do recall them being a bit fiddly, but oh so worth it! Yours look yummy!
I love your verse Koralee. I also love the idea of a faith cookie today....xx
What a wonderful idea, Koralee! They turned out beautifully--and I'm sure they're absolutely delicious, too! Thanks for sharing the recipe...The verse you chose is perfect...
Hope you're having a wonderful evening!

Hi Koralee!
YOU DID IT :D
Oh what a treasure you are to your teaching community ♥ I can only imagine how you are loved ~
These are going to be something to remember tomorrow ~ I know it would be that way for me if one of my faculty members brought such a gift of love and time ~
...As a teacher in a public school, I do appreciate, with all my heart, those fellow staff members who are happy to share their love of God ♥
Tomorrow, I'll be thinking of this special presentation of beautiful treats!
love,
Maria

Hi There Koralee!!! As usual your post is Beautiful! I feel like I have been so distracted when it comes to blogging. Thank you for continuing to post for Friday Pretties.
My Mom's memorial was Saturday, and it was wonderful. Now that that is done I am hoping that things will return some what to normal again and that I can blog a little more.
Have a wonderful week!
Love, Joyce
What a wonderful idea. Your fortune cookies turned out great...I'll have to try this with my boys...I think they'd love making them.
Thanks for once again sharing a fun recipe, can't wait to try it myself! Yours turned out beautiful!!!! You're a real artist!!! I haven't had time to try the macaroons either, so there's two fun baking things on my to do list now ;-)
Bye, have a fun-faith-fortune-fabulous-fantastic-filled week!
Marian

Wow Koralee,
These are fabulous. I've always wondered how to make them from scratch. Bravo!

All the work you put into them was worth it... they are wonderful, and the devotion is so special, I know they will be received with love!

Hi sweet friend!
My daughter and I
made fortune cookies
last year and the
thing I remember the
most is: work fast!!
LOVE the idea for our
teacher staff meetings
where they ask parents
to donate treats....
Thanks for the inspiration!
xx Suzanne

Oh Koralee! You are just so talented. I wish I could have been in on your staff devotions. Those cookies look beautiful!
I had the best of intentions to join your macaroon weekend, but alas, it didn't happen for me either. Next weekend it is!

Hi Koralee - Okay, I did delete my last comment because of spelling errors. My body and my brain are not functioning at full speed yet after an exhausting weekend, sorry.
I adore your fortune cookies in that pink tea cup! So cute - and you are ONE ambitious bluebird my friend! I don't know that I would even attempt to take on that baking project! What a trooper you are and that message is perfect!
(LOVE the new banner too!!!) xoxo
It looks like the Faith Cookies took a lot of PATIENCE!! :) It's so cool that you made your own!! Sounds like a really fun project. :)
Good luck with your upcoming macarons. :) :) :)
Blessing for a Wonderful Week :)
Oh my, you are a baking queen! These fortune/faith cookies look perfect! It was always a mystery to me how they get the little papers into the cookies but now I know :D
YOUR RIGHT MACAROONS ARE A SNAP TO MAKE, AND DELICIOUS TO EAT. YOUR FORTUNE COOKIES LOOK GOOD, THEY LOOK NICE AND CRISPY. HAVE A GOOD WEEK..
