Turkey Cookies for the "Kids Table"

 

 

 

Thanksgiving is right around the corner.

 

It will be here before you know it.

 

 

Don't tell the retail stores that, they

have skipped right over Thanksgiving, and

went from 4th of July right to Christmas.

 

Halloween and Thanksgiving have been

moved down the holiday food chain,

next year, they will be as popular as

Flag Day and May Day.

 

But...I love me some Thanksgiving!

 

Some of my favorite Thanksgiving memories

revolve around the

Kids Table at Thanksgiving Dinner at my

Grandma's house.

 

Our Kids Table, was banished to a small

room off the kitchen.  No fancy table cloths

no cloth napkins, no center pieces.

 

Just a card table and some "chairs".

I say "chairs" because they were often

times not chairs, but step ladders, wooden spools,

lawn chairs, boxes, whatever we could find.

But we always had fun.

  

 We also did not have

decorated cookies on our plates,

I think they would be so cute

at the kids table. 

 

 

 

And then, just to keep the little

ones busy, add an edible

food marker.

 

 

 

And have them write what they are

thankful for.

 

I made these cookies using a number eight cutter

and a simple leaf cutter.  They are easy to make

require few colors, and sure to be a hit this Thanksgiving.
