Just a little “teacher appreciation” gift to share.
A sugar cookie, a cellophane bag and a cute tag….. my kind of “gift.”
Making a little ruler cookie was as simple as cutting the dough in rectangles with a knife,
and icing some straight (kind of) lines.
I did get out an actual ruler to guide me because that’s the kind of structure I need.
I tried not to be a perfectionist. Imperfect is what makes it look handmade, right?
That’s what I’m telling myself.
Seriously though, when I realize how many hours my kids spend with their teachers,
I realize the profound impact that they have on their lives. A great teacher really is a treasure.
Though they deserve much more than a simple cookie,
I hope they know that I really do appreciate the time they take with my children.
My mom was a teacher and she told me that appreciating the school secretaries,
principals and janitors is also very important. So I appreciated them with a sugar cookie too.
Then, after I appreciated my kids, and a few others, I appreciated myself with a sugar cookie.
I’m linking this to bake at 350.
If you haven’t checked out that site, you must go now!
Oh my gosh! I LOVE these. I'm not sure my piping skills are up to it, but these are awesome!!
Your cookies amaze me. I am going to attempt your royal icing for a baby shower this weekend. I hope I can do it. I have high expectations for myself after looking over all your creations.
Oh very cute! I would treat myself to some sugar cookies but sugar and I have had a fight and may not be reconciling.
I think I want to be one of your kids' teachers. 🙂 Those are crazy cute! I just went and bought my teachers a case of copy paper. And, it didn't even have a bow on it. 🙁
Oh.My.Goodness. Cutest rulers EVER!!! I just LOVE these!!! Thank you so much for linking them up!
Came over from Bridget's Link Up. The cookies are wonderful and I love the detail that you put into them.
I think they look awesome! Your numbers are incredibly neat and consistent. Plus, the little card you made is adorable!
This is so cute! I just found this site from Bake at 350. I plan to bookmark it! These rulers are such a cute idea! I love that everyone gets one…teachers, janitor, kids, and baker!! ha ha. Cookies make everyone happy.
They look perfect to me! How do you make the little numbers so precise?!? 🙂
I love those, can't wait until my little girl goes to school so I can make them. Very cute!
