The Cookie- as art

Yesterday we had some homeschooler friends over for a pre-Valentine cookie/cupcake decorating party. It evolved into a dip everything on the table in melted chocolate party (my kind of party). I totally view these as works of art. And I'm thinking it's a good thing I have broad range for what I consider to be art because I signed myself up for February Thing-a-day 2. I carefully considered it for a few days before I said the heck with it and just jumped in. Basically I'll be working on something (Atc's, scrapbooking,collage,etc.) for at least twenty minutes a day and posting a picture/link on the Thing-a-day website. I remember how inspired I was reading about it last year and I'm very excited to be involved with it this year as one of the 900+ participating artists. There is still time (but not too much) to sign up yourself here. I was reminded of it at a Yahoo group I'm on called the Imagination Tribe. I would highly recommend this group to anyone who likes to make and trade Atc's.
