Day 9

Grandma gave me this Spritz cookie press. So...tonight I decided to try to make some Jello Spritz cookies for the Lindsay School Cookie Walk. I beat and beat and beat to cream the butter. Then I stirred and stirred and stirred in the flour. I probably won’t be able to lift an arm tomorrow. I filled the cookie press and twisted the knob. It takes a LOT of practice to make the cookies look correct and now that I look at them I think they should have pointier petals for a poinsettia. They got really brown around the edges. They taste pretty good but I don’t think they are pretty enough for the Cookie Walk. Bad news...no cookies for school. Good news...a container full of Christmas cookies for me!
