I can't even work up the gumption to take on a half hour project, never mind this gargantuan effort. You amaze me, surly teen.

I'm glad you went through each step, because the cookies are beyond delicious, and are, as always, super adorable. Great job sweetie. I can't wait to eat my purple Christmas stegosaurus.

Remember when you made me a purple bear that turned out looking like
this? . . . and I loved it.

zomg, ginger cookies take so loooong to make. I feel your pain.

The Christmas Lobsters are truly legendary...maybe I could find an octopus cookie cutter and make them some friends. But are octopi as legendary as lobsters?...hm.

I love the ribbon effect on the snowmen.

This is why I never make gingerbread.
