    My niece, Natalie, is about to reach a huge milestone.  This weekend she’s graduating from University of South Florida with a Bachelor’s in Psychology!  Congrats, Natalie!

    To celebrate I wanted to make a batch of cookies for her in USF’s collegiate colors.  I planned to make the USF bull logo, but I also wanted to make other supplementary designs to add interest to the batch.  I came up with four other coordinating designs using only four colors of icing.

    Having only a few colors really helps limit the prep work.  I made a set of piping and flood icing each in green, gold, black, and white.  Then I got to decorating.  I’m really pleased with the end result and I hope Natalie feels the same way.

    Congrats again, Natalie, and congratulations to all the other 2012 graduates!
