MG! Here! Have one!
What's that, Joanne?
Patriot cookies.
Patriot cookies? Oh, I see. They're little double American flags.
MG, I was trying to think, what would be the best shape of cookies to make for Patriot day. And I was thinking of an eagle of course, but I made a batch and all their little beaks and claws got burned. But no great loss, because it would be too hard to do all the little feathers with icing. So, I said to myself, think, Joanne! Then I thought, WWLB - What would Laura bake? And then I got it! See, if you look this way, it's two American flags, billowing straight out, right up one on top of the other. But turn it like this, and ta-da! It's the twin towers. With flags painted, well, iced, on them, of course. Unless you just turn them around and look at the back, then they're just plain. But, see! What do you think?
Wow.
Oh, and no need to thank me for putting the flag and the eagle on your door. Just trying to be a good citizen - and a good co-worker! Go ahead and take two cookies, if you want. A little extra dose of patriotism never hurt anyone!
