C is for Spring?

It's late spring and it will be summer in a minute.  Here in SoCal the weather can't quite decide. One day it's hot, the next we have rain and something we call "June Gloom".

To brighten those semi-gloomy days, I made some cookies fashioned after some beautiful butterflies. I really only had the patience to make 8 of these things, and I hated to eat them because they took so darn long to decorate. My husband however had no problem.....ha!

Hello, meet my favorite Japanese forest troll. Totoro! 
If you haven't seen My Neighbor Totoro trust me, you'll enjoy it. 
He was a gift, and is now in the care of my friend Cindy.
