Cookie decorating!
Every year I get my girl friends together and decorate cookies. I make dozens and dozens of sugar cookies and we all sit around and ice, sprinkle and talk. I usually have friends bring some decorating items so that I am not spending a fortune on stuff, but I had so much left over from other years that we had plenty to go around. We had a blast!
Even little hands got in the fun!
And cookies were definitely eaten to keep us fueled.
I usually have a little contest going for the best and worst cookie, though we had to nix it this year because many didn't make it to the judging table :)
My mom helped out by making the best apple cider imaginable!
I wasn't with my mom to see how she made it taste so good so I will be getting the recipe and posting it to see what you all think :)
Do you have any fun holiday traditions you share with friends or family?
Take care mucho,

Hi Natalie,
ReplyDeleteWe don't have too many holiday traditions, except for making a Hannukah dinner with latkes and homemade green apple sauce, but I like to walk around my neighborhood to hand deliver holiday cards. I don't ring anyone's bell, just put them in the mail slot, but it makes me aware of how many nice people there are in my neighborhood. This year I had to mail them because I have a cold and it is so cold outside. Cheers, Becky
Super fun! Maybe you can post the secret to your mom's yummy cider recipe. Mine always tastes like lukewarm apple juice. :(
