Decorating Cookies with PJ

I am really excited about Christmas this year with my little two year old, PJ. He is such a blessing and has been since he's entered our lives. It's a great time of learning for him. I remember even last year when we did our Advent Calendar how excited he would get to open a door on the calendar. This year we have an Advent book of doors. We have begun opening one door a night...again PJ looks forward to seeing and hearing what is behind the door. Anyway, one of our friends here made homemade gingerbread cookies from a German recipe she has. They were delicious. The best I have ever had, I think. Anyway, she also brought icing, sprinkles, chocolate candies with which to decorate the cookies. We, of course, encouraged PJ to decorate some cookies. He really wasn't sure about it but he did enjoy eating the chocolates from the bowl! Here we are with some green icing decorating a star. Posted by Picasa

My friend Beth offered it to me, so I will get it for you. It actually contains no ginger but some other spice that I can't remember the name of right now. I will get the recipe to you asap!
