Unless those goals are fitting this cookie in my mouth-- then I am CRUSHING IT.
1. It started with gingerbread teddy bears and snow men. I DEMOLISHED THEM
2. Then I moved on to scotcheroos.3. THEN the kids were like WHEN ARE WE DOING OUR FAMILY GINGERBREAD HOUSE COMP? And I was like ugh we already ate TWO batches of ginger things and they were like IT IS A TRADITION. Sooooooo.
4. AND THEN Cooper was like oh hey mom my food science unit presentation is tomorrow and I need 100 of the peanut butter chocolate chip cookies my group and I designed.
WHILE ALSO THE SAME DAY Minnie found an American Girl baking book at the library and insisted on mini-snickerdoodles for her dolls.
5. Finally, I was like you know what? I am going to just go ahead and make my cut out cookie dough and freeze half but also BAKE HALF ALL BY MY FREAKING SELF.
So I did, and it was magical.
(I made these too because SUZANNE has inspired me to make a cookie board-- I will show you when I have made more PB blossoms and some fudge)
Frosty has milk chocolate chip cookies, which I also made, but not for any reason just because we were out of cookies.
And let us not forget the mini choc chippers I did over the weekend for Minnie's playdate.
TL; DR: MY JEANS ARE TIGHT
Whoa mama that is a lot of cookies! Since my kids are no longer in school and I no longer teach yoga, my cookie game has been a lot tighter this year. I've made only gingersnaps, gingerbread men, and today sugar cookie cutouts. Also chocolate bark, does that count, I don't know.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a lot of baking!!! Everything looks delicious! We'll be making sugar cookies tomorrow for our cookie decorating party tomorrow. But they will be boring circles because I need to experiment with a GF recipe that can be rolled out so I am sticking with a recipe I know will work. And the kids prob won't care that they are circles. We'll just say they are all ornaments. Shrugs shoulders.
