Buh-Bye, 2013!

I’d say that I’m glad to see the ass-end of this year, but as far as I know, the Fates don’t hit a reset button on January 1st. And it’s my personal mantra that every day, every hour, every decision, every action, is a chance to do better than you’ve been doing, to do a more right thing, to behave better. There’s not a lot you can do about misery,

Excellent advice on the parchment paper and the cookie racks. This is not the very first time I've ever made cutout cookies for Christmas, but it was the first time I nearly threw the rolling pin into the living room. I was rushed (Mistake #1, I know, I know) and my fuse was shorter than usual because of... well, hormonal activity. Sailed through a busier-than-ever holiday season, even managed to buy all the gifts early, then on Christmas Eve I lost my damn mind. Over stupid cookies. Parchment paper saved the day, even if it was the less cool cut-it-to-size-your-own-sorry-self kind. I even wrote a note on the recipe: "Do not bother with flour for rolling anymore. Use parchment paper or you will lose your damn mind."

Yes, oh, YES! Although next year, (or sooner) go for the pre-cut, because that's like another freaking magnitude of holy cow, this is way easier.
