Halloween Cookies

We are busier this year than ever. Normally we have all of our fall traditions planned and everything else is planned around them. This year we are trying to squeeze our fall traditions in around the craziness of life. We made and decorated sugar cookies a week ago. My kids had fun rolling out the dough and using cookie cutters. Then they frosted a few. We took some to the neighbors.

Then we had a beautiful rack of cookies left over. They were sitting on the counter. The windows were open and a storm blew in and the wind was crazy. Next thing we knew the fly strip above had fallen down and landed on all the cookies. It snaked perfectly and touched every single one. It was so disappointing. We threw the fly strip away and just blankly stared at the cookies. They didn't look contaminated. With how much we all get sick it wasn't worth it and all the cookies were tossed in the trash. Good thing we like to make and decorate sugar cookies for Christmas. We will have a redo then and there will be no fly strips contaminating them.
