Christmas Cookie Picture Post

Today was baking day! I found out that the secret to not tasting the cookie dough is to keep chewing gum! I went through a pack. That is my downfall usually, the raw dough, not the end-product!

The mess:


More mess:


The finished product (I still have chocolate chip cookies to make but it will have to wait for another day):


How do you like this Ghetto Dog Grooming set-up? Brutus went to the groomer yesterday and Steve didn't think he was short enough!

I just gained 5 lbs LOOKING at those baked goodies. YUM! Good job chewing the gum. I think I would have gone through more than one pack.

GHetto dog grooming= hilarious!!
Good idea that you chewed the gum. I am not sure I could have been as strong as you. Those chocolate kiss cookies look insane!!

Those look gooooood! I am going to a cookie trade thing and need to make a bunch of cookies.. so I will be doing this soon, too!

Got through with baking day too with my sisters. Bit of drama but we came out alive. Those first cookies look like the ginger cookies rolled in sugar that I make (I actually have the dough made and need to get to baking them).

And the squeegy mop holding the leash was cute. Was it grounded in case he ran away?

My cookies are in the mail to me right? They look delicious!!!

Yum! My mil bakes and bakes and bakes throughout the year. The surprising part is I am not her usual guinea pig!
Send me some of those kissy things!

Thx for the comment on my blog! Let's hope for this one to work... I think it just might. No cravings this afternoon at all despite NO solid food...

I am so impressed! I have a bigger problem with the baked cookies than the dough...the gum trick is a good one! Good for you making it through. And lovely cookies!
