December 17, 2008Sometime about 3-4 weeks ago, we were laying in bed about to go to sleep and Ryan suggested we go on a date one night. This isn't odd for us... We're newlyweds, and go out to eat or to the movies, and do things that you could call a date all the time... But, the date night he wanted was what was so special and sweet to me.
He asked me if we could make sugar cookies from scratch one night and decorate them and the whole nine yards. Of course I loved the idea and said absolutely! :) So tonight, we got in the kitchen and made some yummy sugar cookies and decorated them with icing and sprinkles. We didn't make our own icing, but we did color it ourselves. I made green and Ryan made red. He was kind of upset at first because he mixed some blue with it and it made more of a burgundy than a bright red icing, but I told him it looked great. :)
We had such a fun time making them, and no, I don't think we're ready to open a cookie store yet, but we had a great time and it was so much fun to get in the kitchen and make homemade cookies with my husband. I did manage to snap a picture of him working the mixer. It is so cute. I was going to take it candid style but he turned and smiled right about the time I took it. lol Isn't he just dreamy? ;)
I think we're going to make another big batch tomorrow night, and use cookie cutters on some of them, and leave them undecorated and Friday night when my brother's and their kids are here, let the kids decorate some cookies. I think they would have a blast doing it.
