Cousins and Cookies

The official holiday season may be over, but with so many memories, I figured the blog could extend our festivities a bit longer. 

What do you get when you put 5 preschoolers , plates of cookies and bowls of icing together in one room… a precious mess!

This fine crew knew just what to do !  There was a fine mix of icing, sprinkles, M&M’s and chocolate chips all over the table, and floor, and little hands!  (And mouths for that matter too!)

The finished products:  Snowmen Cupcakes and Royal Icing Sugar Cookies…YUMMO!

But the fun didn’t stop there! 

Since I happen to know that popcorn is favorite food of Santa (at least a Santa in Columbia), I decided to add Santa Popcorn to our Menu.  This is what the picture from the recipe I used looked like.

Gorgeous huh?  Totally expected my version (which included 5 preschoolers) to turn out just the same! 

Ummmm……. NO!

But at least someone found it tasty!

It was messy.  It was chaotic.  It was festive. 

Therefore, it was a successful memory made!
