Learning cookie decorating.

 It's been awhile since I have posted. I hope to get started again and be better at sharing recipes. It's been a crazy few years. Had surgery on my hand which pretty much left my left hand useless. Still need to have surgery on my right hand but I'm afraid the same things going to happen. I've always wanted to learn how to cookie decorate so I figure I better get busy with it while I can still use my right hand. 

Thought I would share a few of the cookies I've been working on. I need to practice on not putting my fingers in the cookies as I move them. 😁

May the little space cookies for my grandson. Today's his 4th birthday and on Wednesday he's having surgery for his hernia. He won't get them in time for his birthday but they'll be there the day after his surgery. It's been a crazy month, we've been on the road since April 11th. We left California right after church on April 11th and headed to Louisiana to visit my mom and stepdad. Our way home was an adventure. We left Louisiana and went to Tennessee, we stayed in pigeon forge. Visited Gatlinburg and Dollywood. Then we had it off to Kentucky to visit the Ark. I know I'll forget some places and I won't get them in order but from there we made our way to Indiana, drove through Nebraska and missed a tornado by an hour. Had to stay a couple of days in Colorado because of the snow storm. Made our way over to Utah to visit Zion. Oh we also visited the Mammoth caves and I want to say Tennessee but it could have been Kentucky. Also visited the Smoky mountains which was beautiful. But by far I think Zion was our favorite. Stopped off in Southern California to visit a couple of the grandkids which was far better than Zion or any place we went. And we also stopped off at Indiana and boy has that place change, Chicago is inching its way in to Indiana.

Keep your eyes out for some new recipes I'm working on some sourdough starter right now and hope to make some bread.
