Sometimes it's wonderful, sometimes it's not so great, but there's nothing like it and when I don't get it I miss it.<br /><br />When I as growing up we had The Sugar Cookie Olympics - an evening of fiercely competitive sugar cookie decorating. The highlight was the Sugar Cookie Person category - everyone got one to decorate, and our cookie art works (preserved through the years through photos) reflected current geo-political events (a cookie decorated like Gorbachev won once), fashion trends (punk cookies), and celebrity highlights (Boy George and Princess Di). My dad's specialty was the cookie decorated with a pithy saying, like "Fart" or "Humbug". Gosh, that was a lot of fun, and we haven't done it in years!Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04500606532723836054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481203733160854169.post-51359985473478630942010-12-21T00:27:41.809-05:002010-12-21T00:27:41.809-05:00It's a treat to spend time with family during ...It's a treat to spend time with family during the holidays.
