Today in my free time...wait all my time is free. I went to my Grandparents house and helped put up their tree and helped decorate. If I do say so myself it looks pretty snazzy. I also made cookies that I started Sunday. It was pretty much a disaster, I will never make cookies that have to be rolled again. It's not worth it. I will also look at how many cookies the recipe makes before putting ingredients in a bowl. 96 unmade cookies of rolling sticky dough that didn't roll and made me want to cuss stared me in the face and I was pretty sure that we might have gotten to try them next Christmas. The picture of that cookie in Good Housekeeping couldn't have been real, I'm convinced they molded it out of plastic so it could sit their all perfect laughing at people like myself trying to make it. So after tearing out my hair and looking like I jumped in the flour canister and flailed about my grandma came up with the genius idea just to make the cookies as if they were peanut butter ones and roll them up and smash them with a fork. She is my hero. So I have quite a few cookies that need eaten and as my Grandmother said they are "Ledicious" I def bit off more than I could chew with that recipe.

I am laughing out loud at the mental image of you jumping in the flour canister and flailing about...and yeah, I think a lot of food in cookbooks and magazines looks too good to be true.
