Snowflake Cookies

This is the closest to snow we've come all winter.

And as much as I enjoy snow,

for it's pretty pure white,

and soft, downy flakes,

for turning the whole world into a winter wonderland,

if I'm going to have to leave my house at some point

(and inevitably, I will; one cannot survive on cookies alone)

I'd prefer to not have to tramp through a knee-high snow bank, or scrape 6 inches of ice off my windshield, or accidentally plop my foot right into an icy puddle.

So for now, these sparkly sweet flakes will do.
