This morning, a friend and her son came to my house and we had some activities together with the kids. We had breakfast, circle time, baking session and handwork session.
I am not good at baking at all, my friend guided me how to bake the butter cookies. It's the first time I used the piping. I think it's quite fun to pipe, but I really need more practice.
The children were helping in the process of preparing and baking the butter cookies, and of course, they enjoyed eating the cookies as well.
I will need to bake more, as all of us like to eat butter cookies. Moreover, I enjoy the process and the aroma of baking.

Yes, I know you are a really good chef, good at cooking and baking as well. I always admire those who work well in the kitchen. It is so amazing to produce such delicious food. 
I am planning to learn more, so I can enjoy cooking or baking time together with my children, and we can enjoy healthier and perhaps less expensive food as well.

Those butter cookies look yummy! They look like the style I buy in a tin container, I can't recall the name. I bet the butter cookies were yummy and buttery also! Great job pipping for your first time. I hardly bake and when I do, it is usually with my sister so I have her guidance.

Thanks. I am not too sure, but I think they are called Danish Butter Cookies. My husband and children like to eat those butter cookies in tin as well. I am planning to make more, and practice the piping skill. It's actually quite fun and interesting to do the piping.
It's good that you have a sister who can bake and guide you.

@infatuatedbby Yes, I like to eat cookies as well. Actually all of us like to eat cakes, buns and cookies, hence I think it's really good for me to learn baking these.

Some butter cookies that I've had were a little too heavy with the butter. I like more mellow flavors. You might have to send me some of your so I can taste-test them! LOL

There are still some cookies left, delivering some over to you.....
I didn't cut down on the butter, and just following the recipe, I cut down the sugar a lot, though it's still a little bit too sweet. My husband and children like the butter taste.
I am planning to bake more, so we can share some with the neighbors. Cookies are something nice to share with others.

Baking cakes is really hard for me. I have tried to bake sponge cakes as I thought it's the easiest to learn, but I failed making a good one. I'll try again.
I think baking cookies is easier, it seems like no matter how, the cookies will turn out to be fine.
I am not good at cooking as well, glad that now we can always find recipes and tutorials online. Sometimes I refer to my mom as well.
Happy studying!

Thank you. Cooking is a good hobby and we can learn many things from it. I remember that we couldn't make some cakes properly in first and second times. Sometimes cakes hasn't any taste and sometimes we couldn't bake it correctly. But now we can make a good cake. I think ,we can learn the art of cooking soon. So we try it now.
