My Cookie Making Skills

So, do you guys remember when I said I was going to make cookies? I did make them yesterday and I was going to post up some pictures!  I still have some pictures that I told my friend that I would post up, but I haven't had any time. So back to the topic. I cannot, really sorry, post up pictures of my cookies because either somebody threw them away or somebody ate them all. I'll tell you how they look like. On the bottom of the cookies they are like a sandy color. It's a sugar cookie so I decided to do something funny with them. So, I put food coloring on sugar and mixed them together and it came out into a sea green color. It was pretty and then I sprinkled the sugar onto the sugar cookies before they baked to make them 'sugar' cookies. Get it?
'Cue the applause!' Just kidding. [ Or am I? ;) ] And when I baked them they bloated! Seriously! They did! They became bloated and huge! But the sad part of this is that I burned the cookies on the bottom rack! :'( And smoke was like coming out too! 'Gasp!' So that is my description/ story of my cookies! 


Toodles!

What I got for Christmas!

What did you get for Christmas?

I got a camera! It's silver but I would've liked blue better.

I also got Raffaello coconut candy. It actually tastes good. Even the coconut.

Hehehheheheh

So what did you get?

Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas.

Happy New Year.

The reason why I haven't posted for at least 2 months? Is because I have been busy with writing.

Writing on my book report. Writing in my story.

Sorry for this much belated note.

I have to say that I might not really post anything anymore.

Maybe like once a month or so.

So very sorry.

RECIPE OF THE MONTH

Christmas Snowballs

BLEND:

1 c. margarine

1 c. shortening / 4 t. vanilla

2/3 c. sugar / 4 t. water

MIX IN:

4 c. flour and then...
1/4 c. chopped walnuts or pecans

(Nuts are supposedly optional)

Chill at least 2 to 3 hours. (If in a hurry, press the dough all around the bowl so that it's thin ~ and it chills even faster, like within an hour.) Shape into walnut-size balls. Bake at 325° for 15 min. Allow to cool thoroughly and then roll in powdered sugar to thoroughly coat.
