Back to School Cookies

 Our new friend Tracy and her husband, are both in education. They liked the cookies I made for Kindermusik, but I told them that although I made these with lemon due to fear of allergies, which by the way were delicious with lemon zest and juice, I usually do an almond sugar cookie. They wanted to try those and offered to buy them, but I decided to make a back to school gift of them. So, of course, I made red apples and no. 2 pencils. My pencils got all their appropriate embellishments this time. Last time I got overwhelmed and lazy. The apples are great and I like my pencils but they need a little more practice. Hope everyone has a great back to school and those going to school for the first time ( good luck Ellis!)
