Cookie Day

Sunday afternoon was dedicated to cookie decorating. There were plenty of cookies to decorate, both sugar cookies & gingerbread men. As always when rolling dough and cutting cookies, by the 3rd time rolling there is generally a good bit of flour worked into the dough. Rather than keep on cutting/rolling the dough and taking a chance on it getting tough, the third or fourth roll is just cut into shapes with a knife - squares, rectangles, whatever. Those cookies usually just get frosted and some sprinkles thrown on top. However, this time, someone got quite creative as you can see on the left - C's postcard cookie.

We all got plenty of cookies and are looking forward to next years "Cookie Day" but for now, I'm pretty much cookied out.
