Valentine's Day Cookie Decorating Kit

While my friend was recovering from hip surgery she was unable to bake and decorate Valentine's Day cookies with her granddaughter. Both of them were pretty disappointed. So I made up a batch of my sugar cookies, cut them into Valentine's shapes and baked them.

I got a few containers of ready-to-spread frosting, food coloring, sprinkles and other toppings and packed them (carefully) in a festive container and delivered them to her.

My friend was elated with the surprise of the care package I had put together, and the ability of partaking in the annual cookie decorating event that they always had together! This made their day, and mine! By Shirley from Hastings, MI

Shirley, I would like your sugar cookie recipe as I don't have one. Yes, you are a treasure and your friend is blessed to have you.

Shirley, you are a precious friend that I'm sure they both thank God for! So sad more can't be like you. Be blessed!

This is a great idea! This could be used for other holiday gifts like Christmas, Easter, etc.
