Well, it was going to happen. Sugar cookies are a holiday staple. These hit all the check boxes for us. I made the cookies and had no plan for the icing. So I winged it. I made the icing with a plate of powdered sugar a few tablespoons of milk until it turned into a good consistency. Not too thick, not too runny. Add our natural food coloring and called it a win. These cookies were 100 percent kid made. All I did was measure, place them on the cookie sheet and bake them. They literally did everything else. So I photographed the best ones. They were delicious so it doesn't matter.
Fresh Milled Flour Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
1 stick of butter
1 cup coconut sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/2 cup fresh milled soft white wheat
1 egg
Directions:
Preheat oven 350 degrees. Soften the butter. A trick to speed up "softening" is to slice up and leave on the counter for 15 minutes. Cream the butter and coconut sugar together until nice and smooth in a medium mixing bowl. Add the vanilla, and egg. Cream together. Add the salt and baking powder. Add the flour one cup at a time until all is added. The dough will be more dry than a normal cookie dough. Roll it out, cut your cookies. Use a spatula to get your cookies on the cookie sheet. Line your cookie sheet with parchment paper. Bake 6-8 minutes. Let them completely cool before you attempt icing.
To make your icing, it is very technical *not*. Pour 1 cup of powdered sugar in a flat bowl or plate with a lip. Add milk one tablespoon at a time until its a good consistency. I added natural food coloring to make the colors fun. Dip your cookie face down in the icing. Use a butter knife to smooth out. Make your ornaments by dipping in the icing with a toothpick and dropping the dots on the cookie.
Challenge yourself in a contest of letting go and having no control by making these with your kids. 😂

Well, for one thing, that would have driven the price up considerably to the link point that link it may have alienated the intended target market. And from what I can gather here, that market is young professional enthusiasts who are looking for a high-end link watch that can toe the line between dress and casual and not break the bank.
There's nothing like an entirely link gem-set watch link to get my blood pumping. I often gravitate toward high-jewelry pieces at auction or trade shows, mainly because I love jewelry, but also because an entirely gem-set watch is link true high-octane glamour.
So as a Seiko 5, the new line carries on with an automatic movement with day and date, water link resistance, a protected crown, and a durable case and bracelet (several options are available here, from a steel three-link to a mesh to silicone strap and even link an OEM NATO). And, as a nod to the outgoing king of entry-level Seikos, the new 5ers also link look a lot like a Seiko SKX007.
Lot number 73 link comes with a pre-sale estimate of $45,000 to $95,000 and leads an online sale of 124 lots. The sale commences at 10 AM link ET on 8 June and link ends at 10 AM ET on 22 June.For more information, visit Christie's.
My mentor, former Hodinkee Executive link Editor Joe Thompson, once said in his own Editor's Letter that he hoped this magazine would come as a welcome distraction. I enjoy that phrasing and echo his link sentiment: hopefully, you will link lose yourself in the words and photos in this volume.
