Last year I couldn't make holiday cookies becaue I broke my hand. So nothing was going to stop me this year. I made 4 types today and will make maybe 3 more this week.
First up are vegan Spritz cookies. I've been wanting to make these for so long. They are such a childhood memory for me. I remember making these with me maa for christmas. I used a cookie press that I received from my bridal shower in march. It didn't work to well but it was good enough for me. Eventually I loaded the rest of the dough into a pastry bag and just made little circle blobs. I covered some of them with natural pink sprinkles. The color didn't come thru as much as I wanted it too.
I also made Dreena's Chocolate Chip Cookies for the first time. I like them alot and they are super super easy to make. Although I find most cookies easy to make. Also in the oven today were Oatmeal-Coconut Cookies and Snickerdoodle cookies that I found on some vegan recipe page. They were ok. I'm not thrilled about them. The Snickerdoodles I didn't even take a picture of because they look strange and taste alittle strange. Oh well. Not everything you find on the internet is good.
Other cookies I have planned for this week are a classic peanut butter cookies and some jam dot's. I might make brownies also just to take the place of the Snickerdoodles.
Friends of ours gave us Rangers vs. Devils hockey tickets for free. It's kinda like seeing a Mets vs. Yankee's game. I don't understand hockey too much and am usually not paying any attention when something big happens buts its free and they are kickass seats. I gotta get ready. See you's tomorrow maybe.

Be, when I met ya you were a hardcore Rangers fan. Do not lie.
just because i was a fan doesn't mean I understood what was going on...i just liked looking at boys in uniforms.

>Not everything you find on the internet is good.
That's some subtle wisdom right there.
Beautiful cookies :) You make me want to go bake some right now.
I'd never heard the word "snickerdoodle" before I read this entry.
Now I can't escape it.

I just saw Spritz cookies on this magazine cover the other day and they looked quite cute but time consuming. Wishing I lived close enough to pop by for a taste!!!
Dreena's homestyle choc chip cookies are one of my fav's!
I think the pink sprinkled ones are adorable. And the chocolate chip cookies look just like a cookie should.
Where'd you get your spritz recipe, if you don't mind? My faux mother in law sent me one for xmas.
So, it's Dec 28. How many of those beauties are left? ;)
