You don't need pretty Christmas cookie cutters to make Christmas cookies!
These are super easy icing cookies :)

Christmas gift icing cookies


Isn't it exciting to see lots of presents under the Christmas tree??

I love the smell of Christmas tree at house!  I can't buy it so I should get Christmas tree smelling candle instead :)  I also love Apple and Chinamon smelling candles... it's so Christmassy!!

Merry-go-round icing cookies


These are Christmas version of Merry-Go-Round cookies and they are so shinny!

Christmas bird icing cookies


I use this bird cutter for wedding cookies a lot, but the bird is carrying Christmas ornament for Christmas cookies this time :)

I learned how to shoot good photos by professional photographer at work, but ...look how dark my photo is!  I can only take photos at night after I came home and it's too dark to do photo shooting!!
I hope I will learn more about photo shooting and do a lot better next year!

anchovy fillet and rum soaked dried fruit


My sister recommended this anchovy fillet long time ago.
"It's so good that you should try it!" she said and she was right.
I loved it a lot, but I thought I can't get them in Okinawa.

Then I found them in Okinawa last week at the bakery store!
I bought three of them :)
Those are good for steamed vegitable or salada!!

I made rum soaked dried fruit during the typhoon locked in weekend.
It takes only 10 minutes to make!  (Just soaked dried fruit in hot water to get off the oil.  Then dried them out and put them in a clean bottle and soaked with rum!)

I will ...
have it with honey, blue cheese on bread.
put them in home baking bread.
put them in a pound cake..


Yum yum yum.. I can't wait!

Icing cookies at the store, "Hands"

I went to the store, "Hands" the other day and found cute icing cookies there.

 
I liked the two colored icecream corn!  I use two colors when I pipe flowers.  It's really nice.
 


420JPY is a bit expensive for one icing cookie...
It's easy to make and I teach how you can make them at my icing cookie classes.
Hope you will join my class and enjoy making them!

Okinwan Citrus pepper


My friend made a home made Okinawan Citrus pepper last year.
It was so yummy and I've been waiting for the season of Okinawan citrus, Sequasa.


Ingredients are, Sequasa and Okinawan pepper and salt.  That's it.
I should have used the Okinawan salt so taht it will be all Okinawan products, but I love this Hawaian salt:)

It's so hot that you only add a little bit to your noodles, soupe etc.
It's so yummy!
I love this!!
