Do Polar Bears Skate? Yes, They Do

I can't even tell you how long I've wanted this polar bear cookie cutter. A really long time for sure. It is from Fancy Flours. They ship super fast and everything comes pretty and they have a great selection and they send me nice little email reminders of their available products. Only problem was that this cookie cutter was insanely expensive. Super crazy expensive. But I still wanted it. I'm good when it comes to money. I'm not a shoe-aholic. I'm not even a clothes shopping-aholic. I don't have fake nails that I have to pay for every couple weeks. I don't even get my hair done since the little $15 cut place down the street works just fine. I have a son going away to college in a few months and where money is concerned, that is the priority. But I do spend money on cookie cutters... and tires for my bicycle. So that brings us back to this crazy expensive cookie cutter. It was on sale FOR ONE DAY. I jumped for joy and bought it. I am now the proud owner of a skating polar bear cookie cutter :-)
 He likes living at my house. He gets to wear lots of different scarves and he loves his super sharp ice skates that are glittery sparkly cool.
 So I gave my new cute polar bear a place to live
 and then I gave him some friends too



I hope y'all have an awesome day today! Don't forget to join in our Cookie Challenge this week! I want to see your favorite cookie of 2011 that you made and what cookie cutter you used to make it.

  2. That's a cute cookie! I wish I had your control with shoes.....but I don't. I have a shoe addiction. There isn't a price I wouldn't pay for a cute pair of shoes. It's a problem....Maybe I should seek therapy, but then that would be money I could spend on shoes and new copper cookie cutters.

  3. The cutter is so cute and your cookies are precious. I just visited Fancy Flours and checked on the price for the cutter...it wasn't on sale...GASP! LOL

  4. @Paula Yes Paula that one is TRULY a GASP moment when you see the price on that cookie cutter. It's INSANELY expensive for a cookie cutter. I've only seen it on sale that one day and it was about $10-$11 off which still made it twice as expensive as I usually am willing to spend for a cookie cutter! And the darn thing isn't even copper! I don't know why on earth that brand is so expensive other than the extra piece of super sharp tin or whatever it is. I don't see the purpose, but they were smart in making it into an adorable polar bear that I just couldn't seem to live without! ;-) If you sign up for the Fancy Flour emails, you get notification of their sales and also their snail mail catalog too.
