"Baby-it's cold outside!"

This weather makes me wish our fireplace was operational.  It would be so toasty and warm.  Because at 18 degrees outside-it is way too cold for me!  Even the Yorkie, Sofie, won't go out in this frigid weather.  She looks out the door as if to say "You think I'm going out there?"  Dakota runs out does his business, then comes right back in.  So, we're at our 3rd day of ice here in Dallas, TX!  I'm ready for warmer weather but the weather guys say we may have snow tomorrow!  Geeeeezzzzz.  At least I think the rolling black outs are done.  Anyway, below is what Lucas' do when it's too cold to go anywhere!





I made 2 batches!  So that's almost 4 dozen of these beauties.  They aren't just pretty-they taste good, too!  This has been the best cutout cookie recipe that I have ever tried or made.  Most times in the past, the cookies just didn't make it from being cutout to the cookie sheet.  I made so many of these at Christmas and everyone loved them!  I just need to get the decorating down to perfection.  Joe and I decorated these.  It was a good project for both of us on an icy, cold winter day.

This weather is sure interfering with Super Bowl festivities!  I feel bad that all of the visitors for the big game aren't going to get a real idea of how great our state is!  I hope the fun can be salvaged in some way for them....
Well-I hope everyone is staying warm and toasty....
