Cookies! (and Procrastination)

Okay, so I couldn't wait a whole month to do another post, lol. I decided to make a post of the cookie making extravaganza we had this weekend at my grandparents house! These are all of the cookies, before we frosted them, along with all of the sprinkles/decorations! (the frosting still hasn't made it to the table yet)





We stacked them according to what shape they were. It is obvious which kinds are our favorites!

Playing with the focus of my camera. :)

Yes, these are Halloween cookies. I know that is unusual to make Halloween cookies, but why not? Some of you may be thinking, "Isn't Halloween evil?" Well I don't want to start a controversy, or offend people,  but I don't think it is. Some elements may be, but there also are ways to have fun on Halloween, without participating in evil things. I personally don't see what is wrong with dressing up in silly costumes, knocking on people's doors, and asking for candy. In my family we never were scary or evil things, Halloween has always been a chance to channel the actress inside me!

So, if you are offended by cute little ghostie cookies, I apologize. But really, isn't it cute!! :)

Some leaf cookies as well.

A beautiful, white pumpkin.

You should all applaud my ingenuity. I turned a cat head into an owl! CUTE!

Here is the cat head as a cat! Yes, we do take a lot of time decorating. :)





We started before 1 and finished around 6. This is the final result!
I hope this post has made you hungry, and made you think! Now, I suppose I have procrastinated long enough. I had better wash up the supper dishes. At least I will have the music of Les Miserables to sing to, and my hands will be warm!
