The Art of the Cookie, Dresses, and Frogs!

Working on resolution 2012-1 – using those cookbooks – again.  Seems however that I am drawn pretty exclusively to cookie cookbooks.  Noting that today’s dinner recipe came off the back of a box of lasagna noodles.

The most recent cookie was from The Art of the Cookie – and was a strawberry swirl, or at least that’s what I called it.  It started with their basic sugar cookie dough which is delicious and I put strawberry jam in the swirled part.  Unfortunately there is no picture of the finished project as we ate them all before I remembered to get the camera out.  Worth repeating, and of course we must repeat as I didn’t get the photo.  Here’s the book and the dough ready to be rolled out.

Let's roll

And just a side note, resolution 2012-2 was more charity work, and perhaps different charity work.  So, here’s a completed dress for a little girl in Africa.  It was the 3rd one I made and I have material for 2 more.  So 2012-2 is being worked on too!
