One of our family traditions for the Fourth of July was to bake a Tea Cake sugar cookies and share them with neighbors for the holiday. Last year, I made these cookies by myself, and shared them with my co-workers and my boyfriend’s family when we got to the beach beach. Since it took so long to complete the process by myself last year, I enlisted some friends to help out.
My friends, who I learned had NEVER ROLLED COOKIE DOUGH before, got into the rolling, cutting and baking process easily, and we had a fantastic time.
One of my favorite photos of the night was taken right after the handoff of cut cookie dough to pan.

Krysten - Do I get cookies?
admin - Two fell on the ground after they came out of the oven, and she was ALL OVER THEM. So she got a cookie. Unintentionally.

Anne - Of course she did! Judy is always wanted to help when we are in the kitchen….and outside weeding, she pulls the weeds out too!
erinparker - Aww, fun! It's so funny how they want to be right there. She tried to hop up on the counter a few times to check out the rolling of the dough.
Lucy needs to learn how to do some housework like Judy!

P.S. Any idea why all of your blog posts just reappeared in my Greader? For a second, I thought you updated 10 times today…
erinparker - Aww, thanks! She's pretty awesome. And she even got a cookie last night.
Strange. I reformatted the posts, so maybe that's why they reappeared? Maybe?
