Annual cookie decorating fun!

COOKIES!!! Every year my BFF, 2nd Mama, and Sister from another mister get together and decorate sugar cookies! We eat the same dinner, Mama's famous Mac and Cheese!! I love this tradition and we all get so excited for this night! That excitement quickly vanishes after decorating about 10 cookies... then we all just whine about how many cookies we have left and why we baked so many! We each use a recipe that makes 60 cookies..you do the math. It's sheer torture and we quickly become cookie slaves.

So it's been decided that next year we will still do the traditional cookie decorating but we will make it more of a cookie exchange and each bring something different. I don't know why this idea wasn't thought of earlier!
Let the decorating begin!!! When we first started doing this back in the day we only used spoons and knives to decorate the cookies. They didn't look very pretty. We have now graduated to piping bags and paint brushes. Not sure our artistic abilities have improved much...every year it gets a little better!

Someone....(her godmother) Gave her a cookie!!!! Didn't matter though, she was stealing everyone's when they weren't looking!

All she did was lick the frosting!

So the decorating may not be the greatest but they taste good and we have fun! I always bring them into work and one year I have have lied and said kids made them so I wouldn't get judged on my lack of decorating skills!
