Christmas Cookie Factory

Everything finally came together today. I got bulk powdered sugar and a jar of star sprinkles from the import warehouse, food coloring, cutters, and more sprinkles from Abby, and a gigantic jar of yet more sprinkles from Lynette. With these adornments, plus the cookie cutters mailed from the States, the Arnold family opened for business.

Cutting out the cookies

Nearing the end of the line. The kids cut out and decorated all the cookies. I just sat by and facilitated the whole thing ("Green, red, or white frosting? Sprinkles?"). Yes, I am wearing a Santa apron and candy cane earrings--thanks, Mom!

After decorating all the cookies after dinner and then consuming a few (product testing), we piled some of the choicer cookies onto a big cutting board and took them around to distribute to our friends. Unfortunately, Wednesday night is "night out at the new campus" for all the American teachers in our building so we weren't able to give many away. We will try again tomorrow.

Cookies, anyone??
