2005 Christmas Cookies

December 15, 2005

It’s that time of year again. Yes, the time I get to unleash all the creativeness I bottle up through out the year. It’s Christmas cookie decorating time.

This year I wasn’t feeling as creative as usual, but you gotta give it 100 percent and take it one cookie at a time, and I think I did that out there.

So, let’s start the insanity that is my cookie decorating.

SEE IT HERE.

This is from a Christmas Tree cut out. I took some inspiration from Napoleon Dynamite, “I found a Shawnee Arrowhead over by the fence.” If the quote isn’t familiar it’s because it’s said by the old man who mumbles. Pop in the DVD and check it out. Go on, I’ll wait.

Okay, not that you know I’m not making shit up, we’ll move onto the next item.

I wanted to do something easy, like a candycane, but I didn’t want to be boring. In my search to bridge this gap, I came up with the Questioncane.

I know what you are saying, “Mike, you said you imaginative. Anybody could have come up with those.”

Just keep scrolling.

BooYah! Who else would think of the Tetris Tree? Oh yeah, that’s a little bit of the Mike magic going on. (Too bad I forgot that the lines would have disappeared after the full line was formed.)

So, some of you might still not be impressed. That’s fine, but I have one more picture to show.

I decided to take some devine inspiration for this one. By that I mean Kevin Smith. Yes, I made a couple of angels, Bartleby and Loki, from Dogma. Too bad I’m talented enough to not screw them up (Sorry Matty D’s face). If you look real hard, you can see I put in the Affleck Goatee and then realized that he didn’t have it in Dogma. Not to mention the Acid wash jean treatment for Ben’s pants.


I guess to some up, Christmas isn’t a time of giving presents or spending time with family or even showing off decorating skills; it’s really about how creative you can be…or it could have to do with that Jesus dude.

P.S. A lot of people say I don’t talk enough. After seeing a taste of how I think, do you think that is a bad thing?
