Wow, you and your friends do cookie decorating right. The couple times Matt and I have decorated cookies we’ve ended up with 1/3 creatively decorated, 1/3 with lazy squiggles and blobs, and 1/3 naked. You’ve inspired me, though. Remind me next year to do it right.

Speaking of wearing the same thing, I’d say that 3 times out of 4 my sister and I get together for one holiday or another and are either wearing the same shirt (perhaps in different colors) or immediately exclaim “I have that exact same shirt!” And we never shop together.

I’m happy that this tradition has been revived. I know how much you love it. So on that note… I’m take a ‘mental health’ day tomorrow and going to bake cookies all day… Nanny’s Cherry Winks for one :) May need to do a double batch of those; and pecan crescents, yes? Yes!

It’s not The Last Supper - you’re not doing ‘big arms.”

Making cookies is really hard work. My forearms are still aching from saturday’s gingerbread cookies… I cannot believe you have a large group of friends that all get together and bake cookies! It looks like a blast.

Aww, so much fun! And I like the nod to the ecumenical with the Star of David lurking back there, but of course the liberty bell is the bestest. Isn’t it amazing how mch baking cookies will make your back hurt? I was a cringing ball of pain after the squirrels.
