it’s only a few cookies (and two cakes)
So I started baking today. And baking and baking. I finally had to cut myself off, although I may make more cookies. Because I really like making cookies. This is what I had when I finally stopped baking:
But then it was time to ice the gingerbread cookies. And this is when I realized that even though I’m good at baking cookies, I cannot ice them to save my life. I haven’t decided what I’m going to tell people, but probably that a developmentally challenged toddler did this:
When it became clear that I can’t make a snowman look like a snowman, I decided to get all abstract. But that didn’t turn out much better.
So leaves me where I started. I have a table full of cookies that need icing and no toddler to blame the crap job on.



Actually, icing stuff is a beating, every time. This is why I make drop cookies…. Given up for LIFE on doing it right.

Hahahahaha! It should work out since my coworkers act like toddlers!

| Posted 2 months, 2 weeks agoThat’s one of the better ones.
| Posted 2 months, 2 weeks agoDoesn’t matter what they look like. As long as they taste good. I can’t icing cookies either.
