Today was the perfect day to spend my time decorating the gingerbread cookies ...
Here they are all finished ... about 2 hours to decorate them all ...
taking a few breaks to rest my hands ...
I love bringing a smile to their faces ... tee tee ... !!!
We decided to bring in the Christmas tree from the deck ...
after days of rain had stopped falling ... plastic tarps placed under sheets
as the tree needed to dry out so that we could put it up to decorate ...
This gigantic tree ... all 14 feet of it ...
reached from the dining room door all the way to the living room ...
Since the Royal icing was already made ...
it was time to decorate the snowflake cookies ...
Just as the real snowflakes have their own design ...
so do these decorated ones ... no two alike ... !!!
It was nice to sit down and relax after a busy day in the kitchen ...
It's beginning to look and smell a lot like Christmas at your house ! Both of you will make sure it's going to be a good one. Thanks .
ReplyDeleteI am always in awe of you and all the baking you bake, to enjoy, but I know most of what you make you give away. It will be so much fun to decorate that huge tree..what a wonderful smell your home must have with all those cookies and that tree. ;)
