I saw it!!

The sun!

Not a picture of a sun

the newspaper "The Sun"

the rap artist King Sun

not a logo of Sun Microsystems

not Forest Sun the rock star

not the Sun river in a travel magazine

or a sunflower

or a sun bear

or a sun bird

or sunscreen

not a sun on television

or in a magazine
but outside in the sky propped in a blanket of grey clouds

and then...

it went away again;

Hello Sun; bye-bye Sun

So we made cookies today..

you make think they're in the form of a sun because we so desperately need sun

but it is a star;

Here comes the story behind the stars:

I'm participating at a craftymamas forum and they have ideas, challenges etc

very nice.

The theme challenge for July is: Christmas lol

It can be anything you've made,

so we made coffee flavoured(my idea) Christmas(star shape + metallic balls) cookies

dipped in chocolate

*The "we" = the girls and me

* A cookie (answers.com) = A small, usually flat and crisp cake made from sweetened dough.

ok I've also done some Christmas "graphicing"

And to make sure it is not seen as last December's baking I've

dived into the "old paper" (yes, we separate here in The Netherlands)

and found the newspaper of yesterday.

I took a photo with a cookie and the date of yesterday

like in the "kidnap" detective series on television.
