Day 2: Last year Mom Tobler and I made sugar cookies and went to town decorating them. This year however we baked the cookies and somehow life got the upper hand so the lovely cookies took a back seat.
Last night after our delightful dinning experience with Mom & Dad Tobler at Buca di Beppos, (which we highly recommend by the way. Thanks Mom & Dad!!) I enlisted Jakob for some last minute decorating. The result?.... It was chaos! If you want things done right go to Mom Toblers!
This is my very own "sugar cookie" Isn't he adorable? He says he likes frosting... truth... he doesn't like sugar unless it's in gummy bear form.
We did however find a grand sugar cookie recipe. I loved the powdered sugar verses the regular stuff. Much smoother. (Duh Steph)
