This is what I submitted for the contest. I baked 29 cookies. When I checked the next morning, 6 had been taken. Normally it's the grands that get into them, but this time it was Dh, and Dd that got into them. Yesterday, I noticed there were fewer cookies, but didn't really count them. I decorated a bunch, and the icing hadn't even dried good, when the grands came home from school, and each grabbed one. I mentioned that I needed a few to submit for a contest. Last night, after I took pictures, I still had about 10 cookies I was going to decorate differently. I got up this morning, got out the icing, opened the cookie container, and there were 4 1/2 cookies in it. Someone put half a cookie back. I am in the process of decorating the remaining 4 now (they're drying). No, I'm not even going to attempt decorating the 1/2 cookie.
