Last night was Liz and my First Annual Holiday Party. It was kind of funny, we invited a bunch of our neighbors and coworkers, and two of the British women asked, "What is a 'Holiday Party'?"
Apparently England isn't particularly PC ...
Anyway, Liz and I put together quite a spread for our guests, if I may say so myself. The favorite thing I made were sugar cookies hand cut to the shape of the Burj al-Arab hotel.
See, we don't have any cookie cutters here, nor could we find any. So instead of just making all boring circles, I carved some dough out like the famous Dubai landmark. It took a little while to do, but in the end they just looked so cool.
Plus they tasted good, too! |
