"Pretty, pretty. These cookies are ideal for Christmas or Valenitnes Day. Edible glitter is just too much fun to play with, try it if you can get it! Be sure to use shortening that is "not" butter flavored as it will turn the color from snow white to yellowed. I cannot get the Zaar computer to print "white sugar nonpareils", you..."

"I watched the National Pie Championships held by the American Pie Council on TV last night and had to look this recipe up today! It was torture watching the judges eat this delicious looking pie!

"Impressive — and a breeze to put together. The bombe is just a layering of purchased ice cream, sorbet and cookies, and it's topped off with a store-bought fudge sauce spruced up with chocolate chips and brandy.
