I’m gearing up for our annual Cookie Day.
My mom, my sister, georgia and myself
get together for two days of
pure baking
flying flour
rolling dough and
slinging cookies.
We share dozens of cookies that we have each made at home,
and bake strictly sugar cookies together.
Christine and I do most of the rolling and cutting.
Georgia is queen of decorating the cookies.
Mom is happy we are under her roof.
We fill dozens of tins,
drink lots of coffee and laugh a lot.
It’s a sweet tradition.
Checking my pantry for this staple,
my favorite vanilla extract.
