My second year in Boston has been about me trying to make Boston feel like home. This season I've brought my family traditions to Boston. First with my advent calendar and now with holiday cookies. Tonight I made one of the cookie recipes my mom has always made for Christmas. We have the sourdough sugar cookies, candy cane cookies and chocolate chip cookies. Last year I missed out on this tradition since I flew home on Christmas Eve, so this year I decided to make all 3 cookies here in Boston. Tonight was the sourdough sugar cookie cutouts. I made a little over 7 dozen cookies tonight. I will be taking some to work and keep some here for my holiday party. I didn't get a chance to make the candy cane cookies tonight, so that will be my project for tomorrow night. And one of the best parts about making these cutout cookies all by myself, the fact that I can eat all the dough I want without having my youngest sister yelling at me and kicking me out of the kitchen! HA! Of course, now that I have all these cookies baked, I am running out of containers to put them in, and I can't eat any because I am full from all the dough I ate. Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles.
