Cookies from a mix. Frosting from the Better Homes and Gardens.  (Any tips on getting RED and BLUE frosting with food coloring?)

Short and sweet from me today so don't waste any time---VOTE!

  1. Voted early. Maybe more people would vote if they gave out cookies instead of stickers. :)

  3. I voted for me and for you. (JUST KIDDING!)
    You can get truer colors with the gel paste you buy at craft stores.

  4. Mom's right. I've added so much food coloring that it changed the consistency of the frosting, and it didn't get much bluer: http://www.mamablogga.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/pacmancake.jpg

    Not sure how much we used for the cherries. We have whole bottle of just red, so it could have been soup.

  5. Oh, and they DID give out cookies at our polling place. Molasses or chocolate cookies with one Reese's piece pressed in the middle. I had a chicken sandwich instead. Good stuff.
