My Newest Cookies

I have a new “hobby” of sorts. It is decorating. Not like interior decorating, like cookie and cake decorating. I know that lots of places offer classes and such on how to do these sorts of things but that costs money and takes time. I have decided that using the advice of friends (in person and blogging) and family I will teach myself. My children are loving my new hobby immensely. My diet however is not :)

I wanted to share some pictures with you of the cookies that I made last night. In the photos the icing looks teal or something but it is due to the flash. It is actually a very deep green. I am practicing for Thanksgiving when I hope to take cookies to my mother in law’s house for dinner, or dessert really, I guess.

Now, to learn the other art of food display and photography. I don’t like the way most of these pictures turned out but I was pretty happy with the cookies. It was the first time I have done writing on them. I love to bake and I love to decorate (I used to scrapbook before I had 4 children now who has the time?). I am hoping that this will become a new outlet for my creative “juices” to flow into. And who knows, maybe one day it will lead somewhere?
