Color matters, but sometimes it does not.
I was given colored icing and sugar cookies and given the responsibility to decorate. By the end of the session, I guess my mind wandered and I started to think only in literal terms. I used blue icing, so I wrote BLUE. I used pink, and PINK came out. Have you ever had that moment where your brain and hand are synced? Where your brain is only moving as fast as your hand? I had that moment. There is no deeper message, no heavy symbolism here. No “rainbow coalition” of the cookies. Just a slow brain and a dull imagination.
Although, the yellow one is pretty cool.
What gorgeous colors, hehe.
Love the cookies and might have to steal that idea. I am baking today!

I make decorated shortbread cookies, walnut shaped cookies with chocolate filling, chocolate kisses, my own marshmallow snowflakes and rice crispy Mickey heads, rugelach fingers with cherries and chocolate filling. And so many more.
oops, that was too much :=)
