Spiced and Iced

I made these cookies (from here) yesterday. I followed the recipe, except to add a touch of nutmeg and a teaspoon of caraway seeds to the mix. My grandmother used to put caraway seeds in her roll-out spice cookies and I always loved it. To me they looked like sewing stitches!

At the last minute I decided they needed to be iced, so I mixed a Domino box of powdered sugar with some lemon juice and a teaspoon of lemon zest, and dipped them in. There was nothing Irish about these snacks (nor is there anything Irish about me), but they were yum!

Nicely done! When the urge to bake catches you it's unavoidable.
