Super bowl cookies

Oh wait, that isn't news!  LOL!  I made a total of about six dozen of these last week.  I imagine that most of them are eatten by now.  They are sugar cookies with royal icing decorations.  Time consuming but I was happy with how they turned out.  Yummmm

How ya like those snowflakes in my banner?  Yep, I made um.  These are the ones that survived the episode where my dog got the munchies when I was out of the kitchen for a moment.  I rarely bake or decorate cakes or cookies at home since I’m up to my ears in sweets at work, but I started into snowflakes for Christmas gifts this year.  Then I finished the ones that survived the snowflake snatcher.  Then I put a big board across my sink, arranged the flakes and adjusted the lighting and snapped um.  Then I packaged them up and we’ll be distributing them over the next couple days.  If I get time.  LOL! 

Halloween.  Yeah!  And I’m not one bit scared.  I’ve been making delightfully spooky treats at work, so drop on by and buy and say “Bye” on the way out.  Ok, sorry about that.  I decorated cakes professionally years back and when the dreaded evil holiday came – I was too religious and refused to do any of this stuff.  This year I’m kinda “nyiet” with religion and deciding to allow my creativity to go there this time.  I do remember hearing a preacher expound on the evils of the holiday.  Scared me worse than any horror story.  He had done all sort of research and apparently drug up every possible paranoid and horrible tidbit of historical fiction and presented it as fact.  At the time I was horrified and antsy about the whole thing.  Now I’m like “Oh please!”  Call it me losing my mother’s religion, backsliding or whatever you want.  I’m enjoying myself.  Even the spiders.  I’m making the best spiders this year!  Yeah, the case at work is just crawling with the best lil spideys you ever saw.  (uh, the only good spider is the kind that I can eat!)  And I made a bunch of cupcakes yesterday and I wanted to do a bunch of yellow ones with black cats on them yet, but boss lady put the cabosh on that because we have an order later in the week for cupcakes and she didn’t want to bake more.  Dang it.  Oh well.  Here are some of my freaky holiday confections this year.  Bon appetite!
