I Spy...Ohrberg Cookies Edition

I decided to brave the activity of making gingerbread men with kids this year. And as all the moms know, it is not the actual making that requires patience and the temporary lapse of cleanliness, it is the decorating part. It went a lot smoother than I anticipated and I think we will try it again soon, next time making the actual men shapes. I realized at the last minute I donated my box of 200 cookie cutters prior to the move, so we were limited to a heart, flower, star and music note.

Here's something for the kids (or the kid in you)! Look closely at our batch of cookies and see if you can find...

- a kitty cat heart
- a broken star
-and abstract decorated tree
-a letter "B"
-Juliana's favorite
-an upside down cookie
-a fancy letter "L"
-5 music notes
- Patrick Star (Andrew's fave)
-5 squares with only red and white
- a heart with glasses
- a green letter"B"
