you said HOW MANY COOKIES?!??!

So today me and my most wonderful sister (who did most all of the baking) decided to bake Christmas butter cookies!!! we thought, "hey, this should be easy." until we read the box:
-11 Tbs of BUTTER!!!!!! GROSS
-1 egg


And that was it!!! no water or oil stuff! just BUTTER AND EGG! sick. anyway, after like a half an hour of prepping it all, we ended up with this:




they look so pretty!!
Don't worry, we made more.... LOTS more :)
So we kept cutting out shapes and baking and baking. We knew we had spent waaaaayy too much time on these and decided to NEVER bake them again.
But all of the sudden...
Pear calls me over to the kitchen...
And she says to me....
"Scar, we made 92 cookies"
OH MY ARTICHOKES!!!!!!
do you have any idea how many cookies that is??!?!?!?
So of course we had to decorate them all.
But the first batch that we had made got a little crispy.
This poor little guy was surrounded by happy star friends but he was all brown :(

But in the end, it was a pretty good day
