Knead until dough consistency.
Roll to 1cm thickness.

Bake @350 for 10-15 min. or until golden brown.
Put decoration on top like sparkles, candies, frosting etc...
Thread ribbon and hang (or eat . . ).

Mix it all together and knead until dough consistency (add some water if need be).
Cut into shape and decorate using dough pieces.
Bake @ 350 for 2o min.
Paint and hang.  (DO NOT EAT)

My kids have been after me for a week to put up our tree! :D I love the cookie ornaments! I think we just may need to make some of those. They have to wait another week or so though, because I'm still decluttering and sorting everything. My house is going to SHINE this Christmas! Yours looks great!!

These being commonly called the Five Solas of the Reformation.  Danika Cooley, author and creator of the Bible curriculum Bible Road Trip ,  has recently written a book for young people recounting Luther's story:   When
