two things

[fabusplody.livejournal.com]

the first, gourmet sugar cookies, deceiving. take one tube of sugar cookie dough, cut in 1 Tbsp. cream cheese, and pinches of flour to firm. roll out as thin as you dare and cut into simple shapes. i used a spatula instead of a pastry scraper to remove the cut shapes from the counter for a slightly distorted "retro" look. bake until the edges are just starting to golden, cool and dip just one edge into melted chocolate of your choice.

the second, my sum total marble creations to date, minus three that looked icky and are being used on my bulletin board. the top row is red marbles with white hearts and black background. the bottom right row are reflective marbles dipped into brightly colored seed beads.
