lemonade cup cookies


ooo!
it's darn hot and humid isn't it?

so are you thirsty?

how's a nice long tall glass 
of freshly squeezed lemonade sound to you?

here ya go.
oops!
well they aren't exactly drink drinks 
but let's just go with it ok?
yup. i said tall stuff. 
so seeing as i can stand to gain a few inches, i tried to climb into it and hence, i had to resort to making stuff instead. 

right by the pan were tall cupcake liners that i got too but then i got to thinking when they are all used up, what else could i do with the pan? 

and so these came to be.
using store bought 
lemon cake mix and frosting just to make life easier.
ta da!
all done.
my son said he was still thirsty after having one of these so i decided to help him out and give him a drink to go along with it.

cuz y'know, when life gives you lemons, 
make, well, these cookies!
:)
