Sir Henry and the Cinnamon Cookies

Really, I have no idea what all the fuss was about recently. As Christmas is fast approaching and everybody is running around to prepare decorations, presents, greeting cards and ... cookies. While I was idling away a cold afternoon in my warm and cozy "day care place", my nose caught this incredible scent. It smelled of sugar and of cinnamon and it smelled definitely like food ... So I started to look for it and Jackpot !!! There, on a plate, nicely arranged and exactly in front of my nose were 25 cinnamon sugar stars waiting to be devoured by a hungry Beagle. Well, as you can imagine, I was not going to wait until somebody took them away, so I stayed silent (as silent as you can stay when you stuff 25 cookies rapidly into your mouth). They tasted great ! Unfortunately, everybody got really excited when they found out. They even called the doctor to check if I was going to survive ... Luckily there was no chocolate involved (which I like, but which could kill me) and so I will always remember these cookies fondly ...
Christmas is a GREAT time !
