one smart (butter) cookie

December was a crazy month before children. Add two to the mix, along with school recitals, classroom holiday parties, gift shopping and work and it's no wonder Pillsbury slice and bake cookies work their way into those "homemade" cookie plates. You don't have to sacrifice real homebaked treats just because life is on fast-forward this month. All you need is a cookie that's as versatile and good at multi-tasking as you. This basic butter cookie recipe was featured on one of my other blogs Gourmet, Unbound. The directions simply called for, ahem, slicing and baking or rolling in colored sugar and pressing flat. The closest I came to listening was using the colored sprinkles you see above. Kids will love rolling, dipping and pressing.

Then I decided to roll some dough out and make these chocolate-covered jam-filled butter cutouts.

And then came some thumbprint cookies. Get the recipe here.

The other day I made some oatmeal cookies and, in defiance of the
package's instructions to "wait until they're completely cool," ate
them warm.

Now I have dried oatmeal stuck on the back of my teeth. I had not
known this was possible.

Toothbrushes are in vain. Toothpicks break.

Short of having to go down to the dentist and have him clean my teeth
with a chisel, how can I get the dried oatmeal gunk unstuck from my
teeth without also removing the enamel from same?
