Its that time of year again.

Over the next few weeks

the hustle and bustle will

begin to pick up as local folk

are preparing for Christmas.

The holiday season inevitably

means an extra-long To-Do

List. But before you can think

about buying any gifts or pre-

pare for any parties, one cen-

tral Yule-tide detail needs to be

taken care of: The ChristmasTree.

Beginning this month,

Anello Fence will be home to

one of the areas top Christmas

Tree outlets. Featuring balsam

firs, Anello has a tree for any

budget and home type. Trees

start at just $19.99 and are as

tall as 12 feet. Whether you are

seeking a tree for your apart-

ment or your cathedral-ceiling

home, Anellos should be your

first choice. Additionally, live

wreaths are for sale to make

the holidays even brighter. At

Anello Fence, quality is a pri-

ority and customer service is

second nature, especially dur-

ing Christmas time! They rec-

ognize the spirit of the season,and in an act of Christmas giv-

ing part of the proceeds gener-

ated from the trees will go

toward the Pequannock Fire

Department.

Anello Fence is already

known for top quality products

in the Fencing Industry. Steve

Anello, owner, is a member of

the American Fence Associa-

tion and has more than 25

years of experience in the busi-

ness, being third generation in

great pride in being able to

mercial customers, installing

tom designs. The company hasgrown through the years and it

long-lasting product that is vir-

tually maintenance-free, with

MONEY

SAVING

COUPONS

Many people equate

charity to financial

donations. But indi-

viduals can be charitable with

their time as well.

According to Char-

ity Navigator, a non-

profit organization that

monitors charities,

Americans gave more

than $290 billion to

charity in 2010. Thirty-five percent of all dona-

tions went to religious

organizations. Much of

these contributions can

be attributed to people

giving to their local place of

worship. Donations toward ed-

ucational services and pro-

grams were the second most

common types of donations.

Although charitable giv-

ing through monetary dona-

tions are important, men and

women can donate more than

just money. Here are some

ways to do just that.

Donate hair. There are many

different charities that collect

hair for individuals undergoing

cancer treatments that resulted

in hair loss. These charities

collect hair of lengths

between 8 to 12 inches

and turn the locks into

wigs for the needy.

Donate your stuff. Be-

fore tossing unused

items into the trash, as-sess these items and de-

termine if theyre still

useful. There are many

places that will accept

noncash donations, be

it clothing, electronics, chil-

drens toys, etc. For example,

Anormal spine when

viewed from the back

appears straight.

When the spine is affected by

scoliosis there is evidence of alateral or sideways curvature

and a rotation of the vertebrae

(back bone). The Scoliosis Re-

search Center defines scoliosis

as a curvature of the spine

measuring ten degrees or

greater on x-ray.

According to the Na-

tional Institute of Arthritis

and Musculoskeletal and Skin

Diseases three to five out of

every 1,000 children develop

spinal curves that are consid-ered large enough to require

treatment. There are three dif-

ferent types of scoliosis that

can occur in children:

Congenital scoliosis- This type

of scoliosis is often caused by

failure of the vertebrae to

form normally, absence of the

vertebrae, partial formation of

the vertebrae or a lack of sep-

aration of the vertebrae.

Neuromuscular scoliosis- This

type of scoliosis is associatedwith neurological conditions

including cerebral palsy, spina

bifida, muscular dystrophy,

spinal cord tumors and para-

lytic conditions.

Idiopathic scoliosis- The cause

of this type of scoliosis is un-

known and makes up 80- 85

% of all cases.

Other causes of scoliosis

may include hereditary condi-

tions, differences in leg

lengths, injury, infections andtumors. Scoliosis usually de-

velops when the bones are

growing most rapidly, usually

from the ages of 9-14 years.

It is very important for

children to be screened fre-

quently as they will rarely feel

any pain when the scoliosis is

first developing. The symptoms

of scoliosis may include differ-

ence in shoulder height, hip

height or shoulder blade height.There may be a difference in

the way the arms hang beside

the body when the child is

standing straight. In addition,

the sides of the back may appear

asymmetrical in height when

the child is bending forward.

The treatment goal of all

pediatric spinal deformities is to

maintain function, prevent

symptoms in the short term and

long term and most importantlyto stop the progression of the

curve and prevent deformity. If

the scoliosis is detected early

the child can receive treatment

that may control the condition

and prevent other problems.

Several studies have demon-

strated the relationship be-

tween trunk strength and

scoliosis and the value of spinal

strength training in adolescent

idiopathic scoliosis with curvesmeasuring 20 to 60 degrees.

Treatment depends on the

severity of the curve.

Mild curves should be checked

every six months by the physi-

cian. In addition, your pediatric

physical therapist should rec-

ommend exercises that improve

flexibility and strengthen the

muscles that support the spine.

Moderate curves that measure

between 25- 40 degrees on an x-

ray benefit from bracing in con-

junction with exercises.

Electric stimulation also may besuccessful for certain types of

scoliosis.

When bracing and exercise do

not slow the progression of a se-

vere curve that is 50 degrees or

greater, surgery may be neces-

sary. Surgery can usually be

avoided if the condition is de-

tected and treated early.

Early detection is crucial.

If left untreated, the scoliosis

can cause problems with heartand lung function.

As a Retirement and

Estate Planning Spe-

cialist, a Financial

Planner and a Certified Annu-

ity Specialist, licensed for over

thirty years, I continue to hear

this question virtually every

day. As a matter of fact, mil-

lions of people are investing

billions of their hard earneddollars into vehicles that an-

swer this question with a re-

sounding YES! There is only

one investment opportunity

available that offers all of these

features simultaneously and its

called an Annuity.

Suffice it to say that an-

nuities have gotten some bad

press since their invention

over 130 years ago, some of the

press was accurate and deserv-ing, other articles were way off

base. A certain female TV

personality, who claims to be a

financial advisor, never has

anything good to say about an-

nuities. Her influence over her

viewers has kept these good

people away from learning

about the benefits that some

great companies and their

products have to offer. This is

truly unfortunate. She likes tobeat up the annuity salesper-

son stating, Why would you

put your tax-deferred IRA into

a tax-deferred annuity and pay

for the tax-deferral benefit of

an annuity when the IRA is al-

ready tax-deferred? She fur-

ther claims that the

motivation behind the recom-

mendation is all about com-

missions. This is absolutely

bunk and Ill tell you why.

Firstly, what does the in-

surance company charge for

tax-deferral? Answer ZERO!

Thats right! There is no tax-

deferral charge as Congress

deemed annuities tax-deferred,

not the insurance industry.

Well, if not for tax-deferralwhy would anyone purchase

an annuity and which of the

three should one consider for

their money; the TFA or tradi-

tional fixed annuity, the FIA

or fixed indexed annuity and

the VA or variable annuity? In

each case, the annuity offers a

death benefit guarantee and

probate protection in addition

to tax-deferral. Each of the an-

nuities also offers a lifetime in-come through Annuitization

and herein lays the basis of a

great deal of confusion and an-

tiquated information. An-

other word for Annuitization is

Annuicide, which, sounds like

suicide. In most cases when

you annuitize, you must forfeit

the principal to receive an in-

come payment for life or a

guaranteed period of time or

both. Today however, to re-

ceive a single or joint lifetimeincome with your spouse, An-

nuitization is no longer re-

quired. Thats right! You can

have your cake and eat it too.

Not only can you elect to re-

ceive an income for the rest of

your life or in addition spouses

lifetime, you retain control of

the principal too! But theres

more.

While youre waiting to

initiate the income, leavingthe account to grow as you pre-

pare for retirement, the insur-

ance company will guarantee a

minimum annual percentage

of growth to the value each

year that will provide you the

income when you elect it.

Now, not only will the income

be guaranteed for life but it

will also be guaranteed to be

based on a potentially larger

income base even if the an-

nuity performance was nega-tive, poor or zero depending on

the investment selections and

product the annuitant chose.

Imagine if your IRA was in

stocks and they went down be-

fore your planned retirement

date or even after you retired,

with a properly structured an-

nuity your income would be

unaffected in any negative

way! In fact, it could be greater

than what you anticipated dueto the guaranteed increasing

income base language of the

annuity. The female TV orator

never discusses this preemi-

nent annuity feature. Every

annuity offers a declining sur-

render charge that once con-

cluded never re-appears like a

CD every anniversary. Further,

annuities offer a degree of

penalty free access during the

surrender charge period which

Its the season for holiday

hustle and bustle and

shoppers are seeking the

perfect gifts for friends and

family members. When given

the choice of gifts, statistics

show that clothing purchases

and accessories top the list of

the most popular, garnering 58

percent of the gifting share.Instead of choosing what-

ever first catches their eye on

the racks, holiday shoppers

may want to follow the expert

advice of a renowned clothing

designer to ensure their gifts

are well received this season.

Toula is a family-owned

and run clothing line that has

been designing versatile and

timeless womens knitwear

since 1986. Founded by Eddieand Ming Wang, Toulas reins

have since been taken over by

Steven Wang, the couples

son. Offering sophisticated

designs that are fashionable

yet always comfortable, Toula

focuses on career-driven sep-

arates that can be easily com-

bined to build a sophisticated,

fashion - forward wardrobe.

Steven Wang shares his

expert advice and guidance to

shoppers thinking of giftingwith clothing this holiday

season.

Q:What trends are in style for

2011?

A:There are many different

interpretations of styles con-

tinuing through the winter,

which began in fall. Lace ruf-

fles and bows have taken on a

multiple season lifespan along

with bold hardware and fin-

ishings (pearls). Womensfashion has been inspired by

60s-era jackets and mixed

prints.

Q:Are certain colors in this

season?

A:For colors, dainty neutraland citrus bright colors com-

pete for the most popular

trend in the Toula collection.

This seasons colors

also consist of mod-

ern metallic and neu-

trals. Pale blue and

bold reds are two

other must-have col-

ors for this season.

Q:What clothing items

should gift-givers lean

toward when holidaygifting?

A:Stay classic and

basic for giving gifts

during the holidays,

especially when it

comes to clothing. In

general, most woman

have their own sense

of style and can be in-

timidated when given some-

thing too avant garde or

fashion-forward. My personalfavorite is a basic black jacket

with great trim detail or tex-

tural patterns.

Q:What should shoppers keep in

mind when choosing clothing for

gift-recipients?

A:When buying clothing, try

to have a good understanding

of the persons body shape so

that you can really pick out a

piece that accents his or her

style and keeps the person

feeling great! Remember, theholidays are a time for giving,

so keep in mind what the per-

son you are buying for likes

and dislikes.

Q:What clothes are good for thin

figures, full figures?

A:Many people have the mis-

conception that thin individu-

als are able to wear almost

anything. It actually can be

difficult to find the perfect

styles for thin figures. Slim fig-ures look good in ruffles and

accents. Cinched waist and

bold contrast looks great on

this body type, too.

Having a full figure does-

nt mean a person cant wear

fashion, it just means they

should wear fashions that flat-

ter their assets. A boat neck

and shoulder pads (almost all

of our styles incorporate shoul-

der pads) can help keep the

upper body proportioned. Ilove the mix of silks and knit

suiting together for this body

type! As difficult as it once

was to find designers creating

styles for fuller-figured women,

things have taken a drastic

turn for the better. With Saks

(and other retailers) investing

a large interest in this depart-

ment, and introducing design-

ers such as Chanel, YSL,

Dolce & Gabanna, and Toula,there have been big strides

made for special-size shopping

It is not uncommon to see

an athlete get hurt on the

field, court, or mat during

competitive athletics. It

seems most of us are familiar

with the initial signs of in-

flammation of an acute injury

and even the tape or wrap

that is applied to an athletes

injury during the initial heal-

ing phase. However, there is

more to an injury then get-

ting through the initial stages

of RICE (rest, ice, compres-

sion, and elevation). During

this healing phase many

things may be happening to

the muscles, tendons, liga-

ments, and in some instances

bone, that can increase the

athletes chance of re-injury

with all future participation.

Conversely, the cause of the

initial injury may have been

due to a weak link in the

muscular chain of events that

occurs with activity. Both the

initial injury as well as the

weak link needs to be eval-

uated and corrected before a

safe return to play occurs.

Returning to play needs

to be a well thought out plan

as well as a step by step

process to ensure the athletes

safety. Providing the athlete

with home exercises or addi-

tional conditioning is always

a good idea. These exercises

are to be done in addition to

the sport specific condition-

ing to ensure additional

strength or flexibility is pro-

vided to injured area or the

weak link that may have

caused the injury.

How do we know when

the right time is to reintro-

duce the athlete to play? This

is in fact the most important

component in rehabilitation

of an athlete. Athletes need

to be tested for strength, and

flexibility of the injured re-

gion. Beginning with slow

and low intensity sport spe-

cific conditioning/drills be-

fore moving on to more rapid

and higher intensity work is

essential.

Good communication

with the coach is also critical

in every phase of injury. Thisgives the coach the ability to

tailor the training around the

injury thus, not allowing the

athlete to become decondi-

tioned. This will protect the

athlete from future injury as

well. In summary, a good tac-

tical plan with return to play

is helpful for the coach and

benefits the athlete by ensur-

ing a safe return to play.

These days the economy

seems to have affected

everyones wallets and

has had us tightening our

budgets. Pet lovers are no ex-

ception. Our pets give us

priceless companionship dur-

ing good and bad times but

people are still looking to cut

costs, even when it comes to

their pets.

Medically, the best way to

cut costs is to focus on preven-

tion. Keeping your dog or cat

in good general health is the

best preventative for expensive

illnesses and conditions that

can be uncomfortable for your

pet and costly for you. Emer-

gency visits at night or on the

weekend can be the most ex-

pensive and can be avoided

with simple precautions like

keeping your cat indoors and

your dog on a leash and well

fenced.

The first step to

preventative veterinary

care is actually going to

the vet for a physical

exam. This should be

done annually for most

pets and every 6 months

in senior pets (over 7

years of age). These vis-

its can save a lot of time

and money by catching

diseases early and learn-

ing about preventative

care . Thi s includes

heartworm preventative,

flea and tick control,

early detection blood

work and a check-up of your

pets gums, teeth, heart, lungs

and internal organs.

Take that extra weight off

your pet. Overweight pets, just

like people, are more prone to

some very serious health prob-

lems, such as arthritis, heart

disease, and diabetes. Its

much easier to prevent weight

gain with proper diet and exer-

cise than having to get the

weight off, especially when

pets are in their senior years.

The first step is to assess if your

pet is overweight. Your veteri-

narian can assign a body con-

dition score. If a pet is at a

normal weight, you should be

able to feel the ribs easily and

see a waist or hourglass shape

when viewed from above. So,

measure your pets food, mini-

mize treats, and maintain a

daily exercise routine and you

may prevent a costly illness

down the road.

Spay and neuter your

pets. This will have a big

health impact. For females, it

greatly reduces the chance for

breast cancer and prevents py-

ometra (an expensive and po-

tentially fatal uter-

ine infection). For

males, it removes

the chance of testic-

ular cancer and

reduces prostate dis-

ease. It also dimin-

ishes the desire to

wander and try to

escape from the yard, poten-

tially getting hurt.

Be careful with your pur-

chases. Replace things like col-

lars and bowls when necessary

and do so with quality prod-

ucts. One good collar is better

than a lot of trendy ones that

they can escape from.

Make sure your home is

hazard-free. Routinely inspect

your home for pet hazards and

toxins. Food hazards include

raisins, xylitol (artificial sweet-

ener) containing products and

chocolate. Poisonous house-

plants such as lilies should be

removed.

Consider pet insurance.

The plans are different; some

include routine visits or just

emergency visits. Therefore,

research for the plan that best

suits your needs. Accidents

and major procedures can be

costly and pet insurance is one

way to help defray some of the

burden.

Times are tough but dont

let your pet suffer down the

road by not preventing some-

thing small today.

makes principal access fast and

easy. As far as safety is con-

cerned, insurance companies

that offer annuities must insure

their obligations $1 for every

$1 of deposit, whereas banks

only need to back each dollar

with about 3. Everyone

knows that the FDIC insures

each depositor up to $250,000

this year, but did you ever ask

yourself how long the FDIC

has to pay me back if the bank

with my money fails? The an-

swer is: As long as it takes

and as you also know there is

no guarantee of interest.

I mentioned above that

there were three different annu-

ities, the TFA that is company

declared interest generating, the

FIA that is interest generating

based on a formula tied or

linked to a stock market index

like the S+P 500 and the VA

which is purely based on the

performance of the manage-

ment companies selected simi-

lar to mutual funds. With the

addition of a living benefit rider

that offers an enhanced income

base and income guaranteed for

life, in my opinion, there are no

similar or competing alterna-

tives for a portfolio geared to

providing an ample retirement

regardless if you are preparing to

or are already retired. Its worth

investigating all of your options

to find the right series of annu-

ities for your particular situa-

tion. Each of the three

annuities discussed provide

their own uniqueness, that

when combined, offer an in

penetrable force to complement

any portfolio. Because of the

sheer volume of products and

information, client mistakes in

selection and application of

benefit programs is common.

The best advice is to work with

a professional specifically

knowledgeable in the area of

annuities. Some financial advi-

sors have received advanced

training with annuities and

have received the C.A.S. desig-

nation from the Institute of

Business and Finance, Certified

Annuity Specialist, demonstrat-

ing proficiency in the under-

standing and use of annuities in

the financial planning process.

Should you have any ques-

tions relating to your annuity or

an advisor that recommends

one to you, before signing the

contract or application, a free

consultation is available to all

Life and Leisure Readers simply

for the asking, by referencing

this article when calling to

schedule your appointment.

half-way homes that house

abused women and children

who have left dangerous situa-

tions can typically make good

use of noncash donations and

accept them willingly.

Donate blood. Blood banks

are often in short supply. Blood

supplies typically diminish dur-

ing natural disasters or storms

and need donors are needed to

help replenish suppl ies. Type O

blood is the universal blood

type and can be transferred to

anyone. Those with Type O

negative blood are really in de-

mand because their blood do-

nations are vital for accident

victims and babies needing

transfusions. Only about 7 per-

cent of the population has

Type O negative blood, ac-

cording to the American Red

Cross.

Give your time. Many differ-

ent organizations are under-

staffed and can always use the

helping hands of volunteers.

Check with organizations in

your area to see if any need

some extra help. Also check

with a son or daughters school.

Some schools can use volun-

teers in the library or other

special curriculum classrooms

where staffing has been re-

duced because of budget cuts.

Offer free services. Profes-

sionals, such as accountants,

attorneys, teachers, and tutors

can donate their services to

others, especially those who

are unable to afford them in an

unstable economy.

Raise awareness. You can be

the mouthpiece for an organi-

zation or special agenda. Either

spread the word door-to-door,

draft letters or make public

speeches.

There are many benefits

to making financial donations.

But donating time, services or

belongings are additional ways

to make a difference.

For well over half a cen-

tury, Cathedral Choir

has been performing

George Friederick Handels

majestic oratorio Messiah.

This time honored classic

is perhaps the best known and

well loved of all the sacred

Christmas music and for

good reason. The genius of

Handel combined with a mes-

sage which transcends the

music is captivating, enlight-

ening, inspiring, uplifting,

and fills one with a sense of

wonder at the truths it so

powerfully proclaims.

Please join Cathedral

Choir along with tenor Clin-

ton Ingram, soprano Julie

Weston, baritone Raymond

Jaramillo McLeod & mezzo-

soprano Linda Thompson

Williams accompanied by the

American Chamber Orches-

tra conducted by Robert F.

Davis for the 68th rendition

of Handels Messiah.

The concert will take

place on Saturday, December

3rd, 2011 at 7:30 PM at

Hawthorne Gospel Church,

Route 208 in Hawthorne, NJ.

The concert is FREE. An of-

fering will be accepted for the

benefit of Lighthouse Preg-

nancy Resource Center

(Hawthorne, NJ) and Flo-

rence Christian Home

(Wayne, NJ)

Toula plus sizes are available

Q:How can gift-givers shop de-

signer without spending a for-

tune?

A:My best advice would be to

get basics and build, such as

valuable, timeless pieces that

will stay in style season after

season. Toula designs a collec-

tion that has a consistent

black, which means that in 10

years the same Toula black

basic you get today will match

the new black jacket that

comes out.

Many department stores

are offering designer collec-

tions at reasonable prices. In

addition to smaller boutiques,

Toula collections are now

available at select Dillards De-

partment Stores throughout

the U.S. I have received many

requests from women to bring

the collection to their area,

and Dillards is the perfect

platform for us to reach our

loyal customers and grow with

new fans.

Shoppers can visit

www.toula.com to learn more

about the collections and to

find out where items are sold.

The joys of the holidays

are many: Sharing

eggnog, exchanging

presents, trimming the tree,

contacting the police to report

a robbery. The last one cer-

tainly isnt a joy, but its an all-

too common reality of the

season. But the holidays arentthe only times that home

break-ins take place. Theres no

telling what goes through the

minds of thieves, and preparing

for any situation is the way to

avoid loss due to theft.

In the U.S., a home is

robbed every 14.6 seconds, and

the average dollar loss per bur-

glary is $2,119, according to

the Federal Bureau of Investi-

gation. Statistics Canada offers

that break-ins are not only the

most serious type of property

crime committed in Canada,but they are also one of the

most common. In 2009, there

were more than 205,000 break-

ins reported to the police, ac-

counting for 15 percent of all

property crimes.

Despite burglaries being

down overall in numbers in

both the U.S. and Canada,

homeowners can still be dili-

gent in their efforts to prevent

break-ins and property loss.

Here are some strategies for

thwarting would-be thieves.

Break down cardboard boxes.Theres no better way to tell

thieves about all the new pres-

ents you received than by ad-

vertising them at the curbside.

Burglars will see that empty tel-

evision box or other expensive

gadget boxes put out for pickup

and have a clue about the newgoodies inside the home. In-

stead, cut up the boxes and

bundle them with newspapersso they are inconspicuous.

Lock every door and window

all the time including the

garage. Many people fail to re-

alize that the garage presents a

great point of entry to the

house, one that is private and

away from the eyes of con-

cerned neighbors. Once inside

the garage, a thief can use tools

in the garage to pick at the

lock on an inside door to thehome.

Forget about hiding keys.

Thieves know about all the

places homeowners hide spare

keys. Youre not fooling any-

one with faux rocks or a key

taped over the door. If youre

prone to forgetting your keys,

leave a spare pair with a trusted

neighbor instead.

Dont advertise your status on

social network sites. You maybe excited to share your vaca-

tion adventures with friends,

but posting pictures of your va-

cation or telling others about

when youre planning to leave

the house can be dangerous.

Even if you have your security

settings locked down to only

friends, the fewer people who

know about your whereabouts

the better. Your list of 200

friends may not be the closestfriends anymore.

Trim bushes and fix lighting.

Darkness and camouflage are a

thiefs best friends. Being able

P.M. Coffee is served after each

enjoy an afternoon of fellow-

ship. Day trips and overnighttrips are scheduled throughout

the year, certain meetings host

special speakers, and bingo is

her from others who may wit-

ness suspicious activity. Keep

landscaping neat around door-

ways and windows, and

promptly replenish any

burned-out bulbs.

Dont give burglars easy ac-

cess. Leaving ladders or items

that can turn into steppingstools enables thieves to reach

any window or door of the

house even upstairs win-

dows that may be unlocked.

Keep things out of easy view.

Some people love the open

look of drape-free windows.

However, giving outsiders a

clear view of the interior of

your home can set you up for

trouble, as it gives thieves a

view of your valuables. Closethe blinds after dark and espe-

cially when youre leaving the

home for a time.

There are many tactics to

take to help protect your home

and belongings from being

stolen. Employ these tips dur-

ing the holidays and year-

round.

Part of the enjoyment of

the holiday season in-

volves spending time in

the kitchen whipping up deli-

cious treats. Particularly for

young children, baking sugar

cookies with Mom or Dad and

then decorating the creations

can be a festive way to spend a

day.

This recipe for rolled

sugar cookies produces cookiesthat will hold up well to cut-

ting and baking. Theyre also

quite delicious.

Rolled Sugar Cookies

(Makes 5 dozen)

112 cups butter, softened

3 cups white sugar

4 eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

5 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt1. Cream together the butter

and sugar in a large bowl until

smooth. Beat in the eggs and

vanilla.

2. Mix the dry ingredients to-

gether and add to the wet in-

gredients until incorporated.

Cover and refrigerate the

dough for at least one hour.

3. Preheat the oven to 400 F.

On a surface coated with some

confectioners sugar, roll out

the dough to between 1/4 and

1/2 inch thickness (a thinner

cookie will be crispier). Cut out

shapes with a cookie cutter.

4. Line a cookie sheet with

parchment paper. Place cook-

ies 1 inch apart on the parch-ment.

5. Bake around 5 to 7 minutes,

or just until the edges of the

cookies start to brown. Remove

promptly from the cookie sheet

and cool on a rack.

6. Decorate the cookies using

icing (recipe below) when the

cookies cool, or sprinkle with

colored sugar while cookies are

warm.

Cookie Icing(Covers 1 dozen cookies)

1 cup confectioners sugar

2 teaspoons milk

2 teaspoons light corn syrup14 teaspoon almond extract

Assorted food coloring

1. In a small bowl, stir together

confectioners sugar and milk

until smooth. Beat in corn

syrup and almond extract until

icing is smooth and glossy. If

icing is too thick, add more

corn syrup.

2. Divide the icing into sepa-

rate containers to add choice

of colors. Mix until well

blended.

3. Use a piping tip and pastry

bag to outline the cookie in athin bead of the icing. Allow

to dry.

3. Then use a paintbrush to fill

in the design with the remain-

der of the icing.

4. Wait an hour or more for the

icing to completely harden be-

fore serving.

Note: Gel colors found in

craft stores in the cake decorat-

ing aisle produce deep colors

with little product necessary.Theyre also less likely to thin

out icings than liquid food col-

oring.
