Chinese New Year Cookies

Now that the holidays are officially over, I can finally return to normalcy, right? Wrong!  Another round of preparations for the next festival has just begun!!! This Chinese Lunar Year which is the year of the horse, by the way, falls on the 31st of January 2014. That means......
more excuses to squander housework time for baking cookies!  Yayyyyy!
Cherry Blossoms and red lanterns are so quintessentially Chinese, so I came up with these. What do you think?

  10. Any excuse to bake cookies is a great one in my book. :)

    We don't have another holiday here until Valentine's Day, and I so intend to rest a bit. :)
