Pumpkins!

It has been a tradition in my family since I was a little girl to bake pumpkin shaped sugar cookies the week of Halloween, and I have continued the tradition in my own family. Growing up, we always did the outline of the pumpkin with orange frosting, the stem with green, and then added candy corns for the eyes and a chocolate chip for the nose. Since I did the cookies pretty last minute this year, I didn't have any candy corn, so I decided just to do frosting lines down the cookies instead, and I was really happy with how they turned out! Check out my new pumpkin design. The other fun part that was new this year was that my son was old enough to help mommy make the cookies...well, sort of. :)
