Bev is leasing a horse that she takes on trail rides and she spends a lot of time just horsing around. One day I will again own a horse, even if it's just for Amelie. There is no way that she'll be getting a pony. And if she does, it will be the biggest pony you have ever seen so that I can ride it too. I've already started my brainwashing scheme. "Tell Daddy you want a pony!" This is what I'll be whispering in her ear as she plays with her new princess horse stable on Christmas day.
I've been exploring new sugar cookie recipes and I used a new one for this batch. Cinnamon Roll Sugar Cookies from Sweet Hope Cookies. She uses chopped cinnamon chips and ground cinnamon for flavor. I did try the cream cheese flavoring in my royal icing and it was just okay. Maybe I'll add more flavor next time.
I've been wanting to make my own sugar cookie recipe (and cake recipe, which is on my list to do) but there are so many cut out cookies that I still want to try. Egg nog, mint, snickerdoodle, cinnamon oatmeal to name just a few...
