Cookies for Santa

One of my favorite family traditions is making cookies for Santa.  It is one of those traditions that ties back to my childhood.  As a child, I remember using this very bowl handed down to me from my mom,

to mix up oatmeal cookies or snickerdoodles because those were “Santa’s” favorites.  They also happened to be my dad’s favorite.  Strange coincidence, no?

And so now it continues on with my kids.  At our house, “Santa” happens to love sugar cookies.  And so sugar cookies we made!

Sprinkles anyone?

Santa washed those down with a glass of eggnog and loved them!
