I Did It I Made Cookies!
For those of you that don't know me very well I am a huge fan of the food network but rarely do I ever try and make anything. It is one of my joys with food though. It is funny I get so much enjoyment out of food but because of Ulcerative Colitis my body hates food. Its a vicious cycle! I wanted to try and do something fun this Christmas season with Jude. I thought it would be fun to make cookies at home.
Now I know that I could have gone and got the frozen dough or I could have bought the packaged mix and just made it, BUT NO I decided that I was going to make cookies from SCRATCH!
Thankfully Censie decided that this sounded like a good idea and gave me a shot. I found the recipe online and then we bought the ingredients and I made the cookie dough. Now I know these are just basic sugar cookies but don't rain on my parade. I was thankful that the dough at least looked like cookie dough. I always used to eat the cookie dough more then the cookies but I have refrained myself and made the Adult choice that raw egg may not be good for my stomach. I hate growing up!
We then rolled them out and Jude helped cut them out and we baked our cookies then. He had a blast picking out the shapes and cutting out the cookies, now he did keep trying to eat the dough but we got a lot of cookies made. He had a blast going through and decorating them with frosting and putting sprinkles on them. Needless to say we went straight to the bath after this. I think he had a great time, it take a while, but it was a great memory to share with Censie and him of making cookies. I hope that I can start to cook and bake more I really enjoyed it! Merry Christmas!
