It's not hamburger meat!

Howling winds and no desire to go outside made me walk into the cooking department. 
I found some colourful cookie photos and thought that I should give it a try. I could find my cookie forms otherwise I would have cut them into hearts.
After JP. came back from his photo tour we had a nice "cuppa" coffee and pink strawberry flavoured cookies.
You want one?
Maybe I will make green christmas tree cookies in December......
PS.
JP captured a ghost at the cliffs.
Do you SEE it too?
A SEA ghost.

    1. Next time I will try and mix some dried strawberries into the dough. That should make them even better!

  2. That ghost cloud is pretty eerie - really. Very clever of you to see it. :) Hope you had a nice Halloween.

    1. It was calm, not hordes at the door. We could eat it all alone :))

I love getting a comment from you now and then. Be patient, they will appear, I just have to see first if they are OK to publish. No anonymous any more. I am getting too much spam.
