It wasn’t a second Christmas celebration actually, but kind of, because today, after we had recently finished off the last of the batch of Christmas-only cookies we had made at the beginning of this month, we had the novel idea of making a few more.

So this afternoon I went over to my folks, and my mom and I made this batch of the family Christmas cookies, which simply became a batch of snowballs and Valentine’s hearts. My dad was a wonderful supervisor and quality control expert.

The concept for them was wonderful, but it didn’t really matter what shapes we’d use for them.

We just wanted to eat more of these yummy cookies, in whatever shape or form, because they are fantastic. And the circle and the heart cookie cutters were the right size for making lots of decent sized cookies.
