Celebration Pudding Cookies

Celebration Pudding Cookies – this EASY pudding cookie recipe is filled with rainbow sprinkles and M&Ms. They’re the perfect cookie to celebrate every day!

Whew boy, I just sat down and looked at my calendar for the next few weeks and I’m already exhausted (and broke). People who think the holidays are bad don’t have back-to-back birthdays in January and February! Here’s a quick rundown:

January 28: I’m hosting a 40th birthday for a good friend at my house.

February 3: It’s daddy-daughter dance time and since we’re super helicopter-y A-type personalities who let our kids run the show, they want to eat with all their friends. Normally the dads and kids go to a restaurant for dinner and my husband spends two hours looking at his watch and sweating because they’re already late for the dance and oh my goodness these people eat so slow, so this year I said I’d host 15 daddy-daughter couples for dinner before the dance.

(BTW, the morning after I said I’d do it I woke up thinking WTF was I thinking? but it was too late.)

That weekend is also the Super Bowl and my mother-in-law’s birthday.

Then I leave for 6 days to the frigid north (Wisconsin).

I get back and 5 days later am throwing Jordan a traditional (read: over the top) 12th birthday. (My advice to those of you with littles: do the very minimum when they’re 4 and 5 for birthdays, then they won’t expect much later on, lol.)

Then her actual birthday.

Then my mom’s birthday celebration.

And then I’m going to drink all the wine and sleep for 4 days.

Pretty much what I’m saying is twofold: one, families need to stop procreating all in the same month and two, I have lots of reasons to make CELEBRATION Cookies over the next few weeks.
