So we gather on the Saturday after Thanksgiving to share this tradition with the next generations.
The youngest kids do the decorating, although some of the older generations participate. Dave's sister made up a really large batch of icing and the kids colored it.
She also brought a load of sprinkles.
Most of these ended up on just a few cookies. At one point there was a contest. The theme seemed to be More is Better.Here are a few of the simpler ones.
Here are some that were in the competition. The prize was... a cookie!
Meanwhile, the older family members were working away in the kitchen on various batches of dough they'd brought to try out this year. One was chocolate chipotle.
