Do you ice your sugar cookies?
Our sugar cookies are from my son-in-law's family recipe so they are a recent addition to our cookie baking. He uses sprinkles on his. Its a yummy recipe with lemon zest in it.

Fallon went to a parent's night out at Chef's School and came back with a gingerbread house... The gingerbread man occupant and some of his siding has disappeared and she is now roller skating wildly around the kitchen island... Coincidence?
Also attempted: purple sweet potato dog treats, heart-shaped sugar cookies (without icing) for stocking swap
