In the Kitchen

Last week Lindsay and I spent some time in our kitchen making sugar cookies. We had some new neighbors that moved into George Page, and I wanted to bring them a "Welcome to Pepperdine" plate of cookies. Who am I kidding? I was really looking for any excuse to make cookies... I think I will blame this time on Baby Fish! I did most of the baking, and Lindsay decorated her first sugar cookie. She was very concerned with the cookies being in the oven where it was "hot".
She colored while we waited for the cookies to finish baking...
I gave her some sprinkles to decorate her pink cookie.... she got 1 sprinkle on there, and was ready to eat it!
YUM!
This is when I took away the sprinkle shaker... a little sprinkles goes a long way. She was not happy for 2.456 seconds.
Then she sampled her creation... all was right in the world after that!
Lindsay's steps to eating a sugar cookie #1: Lick all the frosting and sprinkles off cookie.
Step #2: Take a bite and eat the cookie. Enjoy!
Here is our finished product... I looked last year for wave-shaped cookie cutters, but was unsuccessful. Our new neighbors had to settle for blue and orange stars and butterflies. LOL.
Other news... Lindsay got her first life-sized play kitchen! Our sweet neighbor, Jessica, was moving last week and her daughter (who is now 6) had outgrown her kitchen. She didn't want to move it, and offered it to Lindsay! It was adorable and in great condition, so we said "Oh yeah!". She even gave us a bunch of fake plastic food, and we found the perfect spot for it her bedroom!
It is a little big for her, but it leaves her room to grow into it, and hopefully she will get to enjoy it as long as Jessica's little girl did! She would not even look up for a picture she was having so much fun!
