Christmas Cookies

Dylan came home from school one day with a huge urge to make "Santa Cookies." I don't have a Santa cookie cutter, but I do have some other Christmas cookie cutters, and sugar cookies always sound like a good idea to me, so we made 'em. I started decorating my kids' birthday cakes this year, so I had some nice, bright icing coloring that I used. I've always used regular food coloring before, and the colors end up being kind of pastel-ey, but with my icing coloring, my trees were bright green, my gingerbread men were deep brown, my stars were brilliant yellow, and my stockings were vibrant red. The cookies didn't last long. We're all ravenous wolves around here.
