Last year at this time , I made these skeleton gingerbread cookies (with a few ghosties).This year, for a Halloween party, I decided to make them again. But when I went to make them on Saturday...I could not find my gingerbreadman (person?) cookie cutter. I have a feeling it fell behind the fridge or stove or something....so I decided on deliciously spooky ghosts--loaded heavily with icing.
In the meantime, Mr. F did buy me a new gingerbread PERSON cutter--so....the plan is to make some more gingerbread cookies. The dough(left over from Saturday) is ready in the fridge...now I just need to feel more motivated to get going in the kitchen. It makes such a mess, though.
Or maybe I'll just get my Halloween sweets fix early by raiding the stash of Halloween candy I bought for the trick-or-treaters (those little mini packets of Gummi Bears are calling me).

I love your skeleton cookies!! So cute! I'm going to make Halloween cookies with a friend this week, can't wait :)
Too Cute! You just reminded me I bought a ghost cookie cutter last year... I'm going to borrow your idea an mix me up some gingerbread cookie dough.
Love the new header :)
I love your ghosties and the skeletons are cute too. Happy cookie cutting. :0
Okay...I looked at at the picture of cookies and asked myself why they looked so familiar. Then I read your post and remembered you made them last year. Then I realized we have been friends in the blogging sense for a few years now. What a wonderful thought!! :-)
Sweet. Literally.
Thanks for sharing!
Oh! Gummy bears!! save me some!! Those are some of my favorites (along with jelly beans and anything dark chocolate...made an entry if you are interested :-)
Love the ghosts!, and of course, I remember last year's skeletons. Maybe I should go ahead and make cookies myself!, though the kitchen is pretty busy as it is with the traditional dishes for the following day: All Saint's Day, which is - actually - the big event here in Guatemala. Maybe the weekend after? Or save my energy for Christmas cookies ;-)
I can't believe it's been one whole year since we both blogged about the skeleton cookies. How time flies. The ghosties are quite cute too. Have a great Birthday. ♥Rosemary

i am wowed by your motivation. srsly : ) making halloween cookies. sounds like a plan, but one i probably won't do. they are incredibly cute however!
Boy, I wish you lived closer! Yum!!
Sandra,
I wish you lived closer...so you could help me decorate the second batch I made(skeletons)--my energy for this fizzled out and they are still sitting out, naked, unfrosted(and probably hard as rocks!)
Naked gingerbread skeletons? Something freaky about that!!
