We always make our traditional delicious sugar cookies for Halloween, but sometimes we run low on time and they end up being fall cookies instead. This was totally one of those years. Fall cookies all the way.
They still taste just as good--except if the dough has been in the freezer for way way too long and smells and tastes like freezer burn. Yes, that happened to me today, but I didn't realize that the dough was nasty until after I had spent quite a while cutting out and cooking cookies as well as making all the frosting. I had to start all over. Oh well.
Lucy watched the process and Kris tried to feed her sweet potatoes.
Then we had to switch because Kris couldn't get enough potatoes in the baby, so he had to frost the last few cookies.
Max is weird.
Sandy is cute.
And there are some fall cookies, decorated by a little person. We love them.
Happy fall!

Great fall colors on the cookies!
I would like one please. I'm thinking of the Christmas sugar cookies I used to make - triple batches of them because we took them to the neighbors. Mine weren't like yours, as you know. The icing is a little too much for me, and besides, I love Nellie's cookies - thin and crisp and wonderful to dunk. Light, melting on the tongue. I miss them. I am amazed you had the stuff to face starting all over again, too. I'd have given up and run into the night. By the way, I am presently cloning my desk computer's drive so I can transfer over to Cam's old computer. We now live on our children's old tech, instead of the other way around. Your father complains that you guys always got the new stuff, and the studio is still using a bunch of Macintoshes wired together. So my laptop is paying intermediary, and I don't dare disturb it. Not for another fifty hours -
