Sugar Cookie Decorating


We decorated sugar cookies on saturday. I am hoping to make this a tradition as I have many fond memories of decorating cookies at my Aunt Kaye's house. She makes the BEST sugar cookies (Uncle Dick counted and she made 500 this year!)

Our whole family participated. Kenzie ate a cookie and looked on. Connor iced one cookie, took a bite and then ate the icing that was on his plate. He then retired to the family room to rescue something. Maddie was her usual artistic self and decorated many beautiful icing-laden cookies. Doug decorated one cookie at a time and then cleaned his plate off between each (the key to a beautiful cookie). Maddie told him that his cookies looked "professional." I wasn't feeling so artistic after spending the entire morning baking, cleaning and mixing up icing. My cookies were of the single color icing and sprinkle variety. They all taste the same right?!?!?
