I'm looking at recipes for icing for cookies and seeing the pictures I'm reminded just how beautiful American feasts are. Maybe growing up poor and from a European family that didn't really celebrate xmas much means I don't know, but my friends growing up were pretty much the same.

Anyway, these beautiful hand made sugar cookies are typical of American Christmas. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=icing+for+christmas+cookies&atb=v314-1&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images

I think I'll just do plain white icing

They do look pretty. I usually just do white icing made with lemon juice on gingerbread. Super tasty.
