I love Girls Day Out which usually consists of shopping and afternoons at the spa but on Saturday my sister Rachna, Ariyana, and I decided we needed a Girls Day In. We hung out all day and baked cookies from scratch
(my first time) and spent quality time with each other. We made
these cookies and used
this icing.

the dough all ready to go into the refrigerator |

While waiting for the dough to harden in the fridge Rachna and Ariyana passed the time playing peekaboo
A package I ordered arrived while we were making the cookies so we got creative with the tissue paper
more uses for the tissue paper
Ariyana taking her frustrations out with the bubble wrap
the dough is finally ready
I was going to package the cookies in cute bags and have Ariyana take them to school but we had a small Superbowl get together at our place and we ended up eating all of them. |

The cookies were definitely as delicious as they look!! (I should know - definitely ate my fair share!)
Those cookies look delicious and what a great way to spend the afternoon. Last year, I started baking sugar cookies in different shapes and I baked 5 dozens for my sister bridal shower. I did hearts, wedding dresses, flowers and wedding cakes. They make my desert table look so cute and the guest got to take them home in little boxes.
Yum! They came out beautiful too!
That sounds like a great day:) I love baking cookies and you girls did such a great job:) They look beautiful and Im not surprised that they are all gone. They had to be really yummy:) Happy Monday, sweetie
