Slice and Bake Sugar Cookies

My husband loves my sugar cookie recipe but rolled cookies are so time consuming that I don't make them very often. I'm not a big fan of store bought slice and bake cookies though so I came up with a way to use this same method but with my own recipe!

Christmas School

For the next couple of weeks we are doing Christmas themed school work! For those of you interested in using these with your kids, below is a list of some of the resources we are using. Most of the websites are geared towards preschoolers but a few have pages for older kids as well.

PreKinders

They have lots of craft ideas, book lists and printables including this Christmas tree with ornaments that can be sorted by color or pattern. Find them all here.

Bacon Wrapped Sausages

These are *always* a big hit at parties. I usually make a double batch and they are still gone within twenty minutes!

Snowball Candleholders

These snowball candle holders were really easy and I love how they turned out!

Eggnog Cheesecake

Yes, it's another cheesecake. I can't help myself! I love cheesecake and can't resist trying the seasonal flavors. I'm going to have to spend weeks at the gym recovering from all of the holiday treats but it is sooo worth it! This one was delicious. I don't remember where I got the recipe but I changed a few things anyway so I'll just claim it as my own now. :)

White Chocolate Peppermint Fudge

This is my favorite Christmas treat and it never lasts long around our house!

Sugarplums

No Whoville would be complete without some "sugarplums" so I came up with these:

No Sew Tree Skirt

This tree skirt was super easy and the fabric was on sale so it only cost about $3!

Christmas Decor

All of our Christmas decorations are up! Jeremy has been loving it and it is so much fun to see the magic of Christmas through his eyes.

The tree is pretty much the same as last year. Simple with the star tilted whoville-style. Yes, the tree is fake. I'm allergic to the real thing and I don't want to pick up pine needles anyway.
