“Peace means no one is worried about anyone else's cookie...in this moment we are all quietly content with the cookies we have.”
― Amy Krouse Rosenthal, Christmas Cookies: Bite-Size Holiday Lessons
I made all kinds of cookies for Christmas: Peanut Butter Blossom pawprint cookies, Iced sugar cookies, and Nun's farts. I never used to do this with my children when they were little because I didn't have the equipment or sometimes, the space. I wish I had.
This was my first time icing cookies, and it became tedious after the first 5 cookies. I had to split the decorating into two days. I don't think I will ever do cookie icing again, unless I have little hands to help, such as grandchildren, great-nieces/nephews, or my godson. Otherwise, I'm good with just popping regular dough into the oven and eating them as-is! The lazier I got, the less icing was used. I began painting white icing over some of the cookies in order to just dip them into sugar and cinnamon for color. And some of my cookies got more and more inappropriate, but I'm sure the adults will have a hoot about it.
