When I start to run low on inspiration for this post, or the choices become overwhelming in their deliciousness, I nearly always default to featuring a picture of a dessert. I don't know why exactly that it, although I do know that when all other fail to tempt my appetite, I can always be stirred by the presence of a nice piece of cake or a perfectly baked cookie.
These particular cookies called out to me in all their imprecise, frosted and sprinkled glory. I can imagine that eating one of these would never fail to brighten your spirits, if even just a little. Thanks to Caryn74 for adding them to our Flickr Pool.
