CommentsJill Kuiper Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:17:02 It's a toss up as to which product I like the most - I'm a sweetaholic! But if I had to choose, I'd pick two - one for my daughter, the Disney Princesses as her birthday is coming up and she's obsessed with princesses, or the sports themed ones for my son who loves his games! Regardless, I'm sure whatever is served is delicious! Thanks. Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:25:12 I love the flowers! For some reason, cookies decorated like colorful daisies really appeal to me. Especially this time of year! Thanks! Lauren Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:37:46 These are so adorable and I've been wanting to try this place out... I would pick the "recital" cookies for my daughters who have a dance recital in March! Laura B Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:52:21 I love the "Triple the Love" Cookie Cake...my kids love cookie cakes. Sharon Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:52:51 I think the colors and the decorating are absolutely beautiful! So bright and attractive. Almost too pretty to eat (almost!). Jaime Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:33:05 The products are adorable! I would LOVE to get my girls the Wacky Hearts! When I saw it....I thought to myself this fits my wacky girls perfectly. The love to smile and laugh and I know this would make them! Jennifer Post Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:35:39 I love the wacky faces! Too cute and would make any child smile! Lori Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:52:45 I absolutely love their gourmet cookies. My favorite would be the "Star Arrival BouTray" since we are expecting a child soon. :) Bethany Tue, 02 Feb 2010 06:54:56 I love the happy birthday cookie cake. It would be neat to have something other then regular cake at my kids birthday parties. And who doesn't love cookies?? Michael Tue, 02 Feb 2010 07:31:06 I love the garfield hello baby cookie arrangement. My wife loves garfield and we're having a baby in march so that ties in so well. Maryann Tue, 02 Feb 2010 08:07:37 I think the Valentine cookies are just beautiful and probably taste better than they look. I'd also include the chocolate chip sandwiches as well. Sarah C Tue, 02 Feb 2010 08:32:06 I really like the "winter" one with the snowflakes and snowmen. I love the shades of blue. It's very nicely done :) Sarah C Tue, 02 Feb 2010 08:33:00 My son wanted me to put that the tool one is his favorite. The tools look great! He thought they were real, not cookies :) melissa Tue, 02 Feb 2010 08:54:02 My daughter loves any cookies with pink! And my two sons love any cookies with sports on them! All three are sweet addicts which is why we hardly ever have sweets in the house. If we won any cookies, they would be happily devoured in minutes... :) Kate Tue, 02 Feb 2010 09:00:38 I've never met a cookie I didn't like, and the cookies on the website solidify this stance! Yum! Deana Tue, 02 Feb 2010 09:04:09 I actually crave these. I have given these to the MOM when she delivers. Better than flowers! I'd love to have the Sweet Valentine to share w/ the rest of the family. Sara Harder Tue, 02 Feb 2010 09:28:02 All of these look so good! I like the birthday cookie cake! That would be a great dessert for my son's birthday! I also like the Sweet Valentine package! This would also be great to share with my husband! Dana C Tue, 02 Feb 2010 09:39:33 I just LOVE their cookies and the arrangements are so cute. My hubby is very hard to buy for but he loves cookies so I try and get him these! Tue, 02 Feb 2010 09:55:59 I love the seasonal/holiday cookies. The Valentine's Day cookies with the hearts and the swirl and stripe design w/the red tissue is so sweet (no pun intended :))! Amy Wharton Tue, 02 Feb 2010 10:57:36 I like the gourmet cookies with just one or two decorated cookies. The most important thing about any cookie is taste and quality ingredients. I'm always willing to sample cookies! Angie Tue, 02 Feb 2010 11:38:43 So many cute things, but I my favorite was the Dallas Cowboys basket. My husband is a huge Cowboys fan and I am going to get him one for his birthday! Heather Tue, 02 Feb 2010 11:38:57 I love the Disney Princess cookies! My daughter is a huge fan of them and cookies so that would make a great gift! Kristie M Tue, 02 Feb 2010 12:57:13 I love all the birthday theme cookies! They have something for everyone in your life. They are almost to cute to eat, but I have and they are so Yummy!!! Tue, 02 Feb 2010 13:05:31 The sports theme is one of our favorites, as my son who is 7 absolutely loves all sports. The flowers are another favorite that makes anyone's day seem a little brighter. I also really like the one's you make for the "Get Well Soon" theme. They really make a person not feeling so great smile when they get such a beautiful arrangement of cookies, instead of flowers that everyone else has sent them. I have ordered arrangements from your company before and have received them as well. They are such a unique idea to do for someone instead of the same things people get any other day. Keep up the great work !! Anne Tue, 02 Feb 2010 20:00:21 "You're a Big Brother Basket" is my favorite because we are expecting a baby on April 12. My 2 year old son has called my tummy a "ball." I think the cookies will sweeten the deal when he realizes that we will be welcoming home a new baby sister or brother. Kim Wed, 03 Feb 2010 11:35:36 I love the Blessed Baptism Cookies because they are so unique and pretty. These will be a perfect favor for my daughter's baptism this spring. wendy Wed, 03 Feb 2010 17:45:48 With 8 kiddos...this would be a wonderful "selfish" treat for myself :) Marsha Thu, 04 Feb 2010 07:48:33 I think my favorite product would be the cookie bouquet with the ice cream cone shaped cookies. They looked so good, and I'd love to send those to my daughter's teacher to share with the class. He is always bringing in things to share from home that he makes with his family, I'd love to send a treat in to his class. Liz Goring Thu, 04 Feb 2010 10:54:00 I love that you can order a cooking for any occasion! They are cute, affordable, and almost too perfect to eat! I was surprised how many different ways and reason that they decorate cookies! I will be revisiting for many different occasions! slaw Fri, 05 Feb 2010 11:49:23 These are not your ordinary cookies! They are for special occations! They are beautiful AND delicious! The Easter bunny brought each one last year and it was such a treat! Holly B Sat, 06 Feb 2010 08:52:33 My son loves the ice cream cones! He said he wanted one right now -it looks so yummy he said! I told him they were cookies and he said no, thats an ice cream cone! We got some for his birth 3 yrs ago and they were awesome! Melissa Sat, 06 Feb 2010 11:20:05 I love the birthday cookie bouquets, the confetti and candles in the primary color. It would be so perfect for my son's first birthday party. Vanessa Sun, 07 Feb 2010 21:23:15 My daughter LOVES belle so of course i love the belle bouquet but edible image cookies are cool too and everything looks delicious Bob K Tue, 09 Feb 2010 05:46:41 Heartbear Pail {A385-03}would be a delicious and exciting gift for my 7 year old daughter. She loves animals and of course cookies!! Erin R. Tue, 09 Feb 2010 07:44:03 The Lots of Love Basket for sure, because it would be for my hubby and son and my hubby is a Chocolate chip cookie addict. Karen L Tue, 09 Feb 2010 09:59:25 They all look like such a fun gift to make someone smile. I would say the Lots of Love would be my pick for this week- the only problem would be choosing which loved one to bless! Amy Stanek Tue, 09 Feb 2010 11:14:06 My daughter would go crazy over the Winnie the Pooh collection. I don't know if she would want to eat them or stare at them. I can already hear her...So Pretty!! Kate L Tue, 09 Feb 2010 14:39:09 I've hardly met a cookie I didn't like. My son would love a Garfield cookie! Dawn Tue, 09 Feb 2010 15:42:42 I love the Mickey & Friends cookies! How cute...my kids would love them! :) Jen A Tue, 09 Feb 2010 17:51:05 Any occasion I like the Just Because smiley flowers. For V day I really like the colors of the Sweet Valentine. Yummy cookies, a special treat for sure :) Devon Wed, 10 Feb 2010 10:20:42 Absolutely the Smiling Face Daisies! We could all use a little sunshiney smile right now!! GRKids.com has been the best resource for our family! Wed, 10 Feb 2010 19:10:46 I love their cookies! YUMMO and maybe it's because I am pregnant but the baby ones are my favorites right now- the It's a Boy Basket. Denice Thu, 11 Feb 2010 11:02:24 Who knew cookies could be made to look so cool!!! I have 3 boys and they would love "the tools" cookie basket!! Leave a Reply |  Now booking for Mother's Day! Welcome!This blog is a place to share the ways we spend our time with kids.
