My leukemia's back.

Whoa, glad I'm not eating YOUR Christmas cookies Blooie! Don't like Red Hots even a tiny bit.

A few to counteract the sweetness of the powdered sugar icing they like is fine. But they’ve given it a whole new spin!

Bruce I understand, I like some red hots, but as a teen I over indulged with some spicy Mexican food, and it ruined my stomach for certain spicy foods. Funny I can eat most all hot foods from a Chinese restaurant hit and miss on some Hispanic foods, but I cannot handle more than a bite of hot cheetoes or any other hot foods like that some I cannot handle in the mouth, but can digest it, but many I cannot do either!

OFChickens, BYC is a family, in an extended sense some are the kind of family where it's your 3rd cousin's step kid, "barely related" by marriage, not blood, some are your 2n'd cousin's in laws, in laws that you see at the occasional funeral/wedding never to be seen or thought of again until there is a minister and a meal/dessert after there are some words spoken over a person or persons. but this thread you have joined our "joined at the hip" blood relation, we see during the good bad and ugly!

Never heard it all explained better!

Please understand that I've never done cookie cutter type cookies before. I've never made my own flow icing before, either. I got the outline icing just fine, but had to thin the flow icing, then re-bag it. When I took the class, I was told she never uses smaller than a #3 tip, but next time, I'll use smaller tips for the detail work. I'll do it all over again in a couple days. I will learn this, and learn it well. Someone told me to use food color markers to put the lines on the cookies, so they're straight, then put the icing over the marker line. Same thing with a good circle.

I have several more to do, but I'm tired, so I put it all away, and will finish up tomorrow.

Thank you I really like how you describe this family of friends, I think you have a way with words anyone can relate to. I get it! I think it’s unique that you have such a close group that at the same time is so welcoming to new people. Maybe it’s a ...chicken people... thing
