celebrating election day with cookies

Blogging live from my election/birthday happening. This was my attempt at cookie decorating. Couldn't find any cupcakes with white frosting (the ones in the supermarket are still orange from Halloween, which is a little scary) so went with chocolate chip cookies, which is truthfully are probably better than cupcakes. Got the idea after a lively debate about Obama and Mccain cakes, cookies, and candies inspired by yeswecake.com, so I decided to just get the appropriate colors of frosting and let people decorate for themselves. I made these before everyone arrived, and I already had a friend attempt to decorate his cookie, but he ate it before I could take a photo!
