I wasn't kidding about the snow we woke up to on Tuesday. The only 2 people left smiling in our home were Q&A. Oh, make that three including the pumpkin with his blingin' tooth.Thank goodness it melted in a few hours.
Your costume suggestions were great. I think we figured out what we are going to be... just need to pick up a couple pieces for it.
Some of you might remember the costume cookies I posted about last year for Halloween. I am preparing some roll-out sugar cookie dough again so we can make these with our cousins tomorrow. I used a knife and hand-cut designs & then pushed in some sucker sticks before baking them.
As if sugar cookies couldn't get any better in my eyes, Cookie magazine tempts me into making costume cookies for Halloween! I love this idea because, hey, I love any excuse to eat frosting
and I like being a dork. Which is how you feel when you make your husband hold up a mustache cookie while you hold up a scary tooth cookie.
After doing a little research I need to order these cookie cutters for next year:
lol... your pumpkin is so cute with the snow covering it! :P Love the cookie masks!!! :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, I love your pumpkin! And the masks are so cute.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I received my class kit earlier this week and I cannot WAIT until Monday! :)

ReplyDeleteThis is what makes this post horrible- You also posted easter eggs in the snow not to long ago :( Why does is snow every holiday but 4th of july? I swear if next year you have a flag in the snow Im out of here ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd I can't go without mentioning how adorable those cookies are!

Last year I saw your post and made some fun cookies too! The kids put so much on theirs that you couldn't even pick them up. Here is a link to my blog if you want to take a look! http://monkeyboysmommy.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
