Not much time around the farm, but that's not stopping me from thinking about fall cookies. Dreaming about cookie baking saves calories, but it's not nearly as much fun as accidentally flinging dough onto the ceiling or having your cookies develop hip-spread.I was telling someone the other day, I'm ready for Halloween. I haven't had time to cut my hair, and I look just like the girl in that horror movie, The Ring. You know, the girl with the hair who crawls out of the TV set?
Yep, that's me. So I won't need a costume this year.
The plates were bought at Big Lots this summer (when it was 98 degrees and Fall merchandise was being set about). The sprinkles are made by Wilton.
The napkins are dish towels.
Darling cookie cutters. However, you all know about me and cookies, so please take pity on these poor cookie cutters. And the cookies are bound to show up someday in a Foodie Friday Trainwreck.(Cookie cutters, set of 5, by R&M International Corp, Pipersville, Pa). Wilton makes them, too.
A closer look at the sprinkles, which utterly fascinate me. 3 carbs per tablespoon is my kind of sprinkle. Unfortunately they will look 180 degrees different after I'm finished.
If you are joining us for Foodie Friday, Mr. Linky awaits your recipe and blog-post link. Thanks to all of you wonderful cooks for making this event fun.

Can't wait to see this project! The sprinkles are cute and I love the cookie cutters!
ReplyDeleteMy sprinkles don't have calories or carbs on them--of course,I'm not sure where I bought them either :) Be sure to take pictures when you start fling dough!
ReplyDeleteLove those plates...I wonder if Big Lots has any left. I'm a sucker for all the cookie cutters and sprinkles too!
ReplyDeleteElaine :)
Those square plates are super! Let me know when the cookies come out of the oven, I've got sprinkles to share. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove those cookie cutters! I think that snickerdoodles would be the perfect cookie for the leaf cutters. Hope that you are having a good one!
ReplyDeleteFall is so much fun! Love your cookie cutters and sprinkles!
ReplyDeleteI am going to Big Lots tomorrow cause I have been searching for black plates! Love the cookie cutters but am sure I will love the finished product even better!!!!! Happy Fall Michael Lee! Hugs, Pinky
ReplyDeletelet me know how the challah turns out!!

I don't think I've ever flung cookie dough, but I flung (flang? flinged?) pistachio pudding fluff down my kitchen steps this very evening on my way to supper at my mother's house. So we will have to have ice cream sandwiches for dessert, instead.
ReplyDeleteI see huge potential here! I've recently become a big fan of sprinkles! :-)I found some neat cupcake wrappers recently...now I just need to find time to bake cupcakes! :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the new header! I was just looking at fall and Halloween sprinkles today myself. Hard to believe it's almost October!
ReplyDeleteI've worked late every night this week -- no cooking going on at my house *sigh* Can't wait to see those cookies!
ReplyDeleteI got so distracted looking at cute little Mister in his costume that I almost forgot to join the party! Oh, if only cookies didn't have calories!
ReplyDeleteChristi
You are teasing us with what's to come of those sprinkles and cookie cutters! Suddenly my mouth is watering and I have a craving for a delicious sugar cookie.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the baking - who cares if you make a little mess. Around here the baker doesn't always have to clean up the kitchen afterward, that's a good deal, don't you think? I hope you'll come by for a very yummy plum tart recipe. See you soon!

Can't wait to see the cookies. Making cut out decorated cookies is always fun! ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your cookies. And, hey, we're coming upon the holidays (okay, so they're at least two months away), but there are no calories during holidays!
ReplyDeleteWe are celebrating Fall at the plantation as well! Hope your Mother is well!
ReplyDeleteLove your sprinkles as well as the cutters! The sprinkles look like fun!
ReplyDeleteI admire your baking aspirations. Let's hope most of the cookie dough makes it into the oven ;)
ReplyDeleteI am a bit lazy when it comes to making cookies... This you will see when you visit my blog for the "no calorie" desserts.
I love cookie season, and I love your fall cookie stuff. It looks like fun and also, I wanted to say how adorable your little dog looks. :O)
ReplyDeleteMichael, you are so wrong. I know for sure that sprinkles and cookies have no carbs or calories :-). Have fun making your cookies.
ReplyDeleteYou are ready to bake yummies!!! FUN!!
ReplyDeleteIt is fun when you find different sprinklers to decorate with, MB
ReplyDeleteI have cookies on the brain too! It is still 90 degrees here. I love the pictures, they are helping to put me in a autumn frame of mind!
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing your cookie cutter and sprinkle pictures, I'm inspired to dig out my fall cookie cutters and make some.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing your cookies on an upcoming Foodie Friday!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting.
Jane
A beautiful post, Michael. You've inspired me to get out my box of cookie cutters and make sure I have a supply of fall colors and sprinkles. What could be better than a decorated sugar cookie?
ReplyDeleteomg, that photo on your banner with the pup is toooooo cute!!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy reading your blog! I have joined Foodie Friday...have a great day and Happy blogging!
ReplyDeleteyou always crack me up, i love your fall baking confidence, yep you sure know how to take on falling leaves with gusto! great pics of a accindent waiting to be baked~
ReplyDeleteI love cookie cutters! But after 35 years of making sugar cookies I came to the conclusion that I love eating the cookies but making them is too frustrating for me so I have two huge glass jars of them that I like to look at but I'll let someone else make them! And I am OK with that. I hope you'll post your beautifully made and decorated ones and I will enjoy yours too.
ReplyDeleteJust bought my sprinkles at JoAnn's fabrics this week-end and also bought some cupcake holders.
ReplyDeleteNow time to bake them; busy too.
Love the plates and the napkin (dish towel).
I need to make up a directory and set of instructions to keep up with my memes.
ReplyDeleteI had my post ready ahead of time...good. Then I remembered to actually link it up this time...good. Then I visited a bunch of other participants...good.
Then it occurred to me that I forgot to leave a comment on your post...not so good. Sorry.
I can picture using those cookie cutters to cut out some pie crust leaves to decorate the top of a pie or to use them on some puff pastry for an appetizer of some sort. Oh ya, cookies are good too.
Your photographs are always beautiful; these are no exception. I can hardly wait to see what you'll accomplish with these items. I've never anxiously awaited a "trainwreck" before! ;)
ReplyDeleteBill
Love the cookie cutters. So what kind of cookies will you be making? Have a fun weekend:)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing what you do! I've got a new leave cutter too I might give a try this weekend.
ReplyDeleteYou've peaked my interest & I'll be watching to see the end results!
ReplyDeleteI love all your wonderful photos...you really capture the essence with each one.
I can't wait to see your finished cookies. My cut out cookies are never pretty. They are pretty in my mind, but that doesn't translate to the cookie. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHow is your mother?
