Day 64: Green Cookie Tuesday

Dear Fabulous Spouse,
Today was a slow day.  Basketball was moved to Wednesday, so that just left wrestling practice, Daisy Scouts, and Boy Scouts.  Plenty of time to make some green white chocolate macadamia nut cookies.
We miss you.
Love,
Me

Translation: Once you’ve gone gel, there is no going back!
Ok, the pictures today could really go yesterday or today.  These cookies were started after the kids went to bed for the night, and came out of the oven after midnight…so technically… they go on the post for today (and they are the only pictures that we have for the day).

These were made with gel food coloring.  So? You ask. In the past, I have used green food coloring on cookies and cupcakes and always been disappointed.  This year, I decided to get the stuff that cake makers use to make fondant and frosting.  The results were Shrecktacular!

These are due to go into the mail in the next day or so, as the mail has slowed with the riots from the book burning incident. *sigh*  I hope that your office enjoys their St. Patrick’s Day box!

Daisy Scouts was a meeting to set up a Mother’s Day Tea for a fundraiser for the Troop, so no pictures.  Then, we raced straight from that to get from there to home to get Oldest Child to Boy Scouts close to on time.  Hope all is well (and decidedly less hectic) there.
