(with some help from a friend and my gf)
I got the acorn cut-out shape in the US. They're for a party tonight, and the acorn is kind of a logo for the group that's throwing it (cause "acorn" is a Dutch word for "glans" as well--used in a similar sense as someone "being an asshole").

I also got a VERY NICE mittens shape in the same shop. I'll try to make a bunch of mitten-cookies for the next UK meetup or something. Food-colouring is hilariously cheap at the local asian supermarket (75 cents for a small bottle, and we only needed like 10 drops to make all of that shit green), so I could use blue or cyan food-dye in sugar-glazing, and the cookies themselves will turn brown anyway, so it's going to look exactly right, those. Perhaps. I will try.
Wow, those are positively artisanal.
And this is for making cookies a pun. :argh!:
NICE. And they look tasty too!
Those look DELICIOUS.
THEY WERE A HUGE SUCCESS
:D Of course they were!
SEND ME COOKIES NAO!!!
i liek cookies
:mittens:
Hot damn, those look tasty. Whenever I've experimented with cookies, its gone remarkably bad. Come to think of it cookies and me have always gone over poorly, but it especially becomes evident when I try cramming Oreos into chocolate chip cookies. They were fucking giga-huge.
