This morning Amanda brought Samantha to our house, along with a Tupperware container filled with sugar cookie dough, a variety of sprinkles and colored sugars, HOMEMADE sheet of marshmellow to be cut into star shapes, rolling pin, baking sheet. They cut out the marshmellows (sort of...it was really hard to cut -- stretchy. Amanda had used a Martha Stewart recipe and it wasn't working right. She muttered under her breath: "I am so pissed off at that Martha Stewart right now!" heh heh. She'd had to hold her tongue the night before and all morning because Samantha is only 10.)
They rolled out dough and cut out shapes of Christmas trees, stars, swans, and ballerinas -- Samantha's favorite. Her Mom and Dad and little brother picked her up early afternoon for her basketball game but stayed a while and talked. Good day made up of a house full of people and the aroma of baking cookies.
