The sugar cookie making is a bit of a tradition. I still remember making sugar cookies with my Grandma, and my Mom uses her Grandma's recipe that she remembers making with her. Though we make them all times of year, I think I enjoy the Easter cookies the most. Something about the images of spring is nice and uplifting. Not to mention, there aren't a million other deserts to be eaten (like with Christmas).
And, it was nice right now to be doing something that felt springy. Looking out at the poor, huddled, wind-blown tulips this morning was not very uplifting. The wind still blew, and they looked like little bunches of people shivering and huddled together. A sad sight.
Tomorrow I'll be heading up to Iowa where it will be even colder--bundled up in sweaters and coats for Easter church service at my Grandparents.
I'm ready for Spring to come--not Summer--not Winter... SPRING!

The cookies are beautiful! Easter snuck up on me this year and I didn't make a single sugar cookie, perhaps I'll find time to make them for Secretary's Day, ha! Is there ever a bad time for sugar cookies?
There never is a bad time for sugar cookies... or sugar cookie dough! Yummy and Fun and Pretty :) Thanks for the comments!
