Making Christmas cookies the new-fashioned way
Not a whole lot in this world is prettier than the holiday cookies from Brooklyn's Gumdrop Cookie Shop, but then sometimes pretty is in the eye of the beholder. And when that beholder is the proud mom (ahem) whose three year-old daughter is enthusiastically scribbling her own lopsided cyclops snowman on a cookie, well that's about the most beautiful thing in the world.

The Van Gogh cookies set comes with a dozen yummy frosted sugar cookies along with ten vibrant edible ink markers so the artists of the family can get to work. It comes so beautifully packaged, it makes a terrific gift for the family when visiting the nieces and nephews this holiday. Or simply grab one for yourself, and let the kids get busy creating their own little impressionistic renderings for teachers, coaches, and other loved ones.
