My wonderful mother-in-law (Babs) gave me a special cookie cutter to use at Christmas time that is a tradition in their family. Her mother-in-law gave her one when she first married. This "Jolly Santa" cookie cutter has been used by Gram Rea (Andy's Dad's mother) since the 50's. They still sell the cookie cutter on line so Holly & I both received one as newly weds. I finally decided to make them myself this year only to discover, after days & nights of searching, that I have misplaced mine somewhere!! I was so sad, but Babs came to my rescue & let me use hers- I only had to sign one release contract (ha!ha!). Anyways, the girls made the cookies on Sunday & I finished the decorating today. WOW! Very tedious work but very worth it! They are so neat!! See for yourself.....
They taste as yummy as they look!! (we had plenty of practice ones that didn't look so cute!)
Merry Christmas!!!
