tradition

A couple days ago, my mom mentioned that she was making her Valentine's Day cookies this week. I informed her I had just bought heart-shaped cookie cutters that morning, to replace the ones she sent me while I was in Kenya. She used to make the cookies and send me those when I was in college, but now I'm old and married and I've got to make them on my own. The snow day was a perfect opportunity!




Of course Moosey got a cookie:
Bonus of snow day: someone to decorate cookies with. Matt's were more of a "modern" design.

Drawback of snow day: we didn't get to go to Bible study, which is what I intended to make these for. What in the world will we do with them all?

ummm...You should put them in your freezer and feed them to ME! Because I am coming to your house!!

I can't believe you had never built a snowman before! What happened at Taylor? Did it not snow there?

...or, you could put them in the mail to friends far away. I'm sure those of us in Kenya & the UAE would get them this year. Certainly in time for next Valentine's! My mom always made lip shaped cookies. Love 'em. What the sugar dough recipe you use?
