Gingerbread Tree and Stand-Up Cookies

Without me asking, my parents bought me a kit to make a Gingerbread Tree. They knew that I like to decorate them. So this is the final result. I had to make some red icing though; it only came with green and white. I thought the presents looked funny though. Two out of three were round instead of square shaped. xD


After making the tree I had a lot of extra icing. Dad had the idea of making some cookies but we were out of dough. So I found our Stand-Up cookie tin and followed the recipe it gave me. I then made a lot of cookies and decorated them. Most of the cookies went bye-bye as soon as they were done being decorated. Out of all of the cookies we only made two stand-up cookies. The last time we tried to make these cookies (we used chocolate chip cookie dough instead) they wouldn't stand up. I was afraid that none of them would work, but thankfully these ones did. ^^ (Parker decorated Bumble while I decorated Rudolph.)

Cool cookies! I need to get in the habit of wanting to do things like this. *sigh* Maybe in my next life....
