What Your Favorite Holiday Cookie Says About You

It’s about that time of year when cinnamon fills the air and holiday lights line just about everything. Different types of holiday cookies are practically the best part about this season. All of these choices can really tell a lot about a person. From gingerbread all the way to peppermint bark, there is a flavor for everyone and a holiday cookie to match it.

1. Gingerbread cookies

This holiday specialty is not for the average cookie eater. This seasonal delicacy is a favorite of those looking for a more personal dessert. Attention to detail is key as the baker creates the perfect identity for their delicious holiday cookie. Frosting decorations are included and are a must.

2. Gingerbread houses

The gingerbread house is among the holiday treats that take the most creativity and planning. This person can visualize the architecture of this soon-to-be monument before all of the materials have even been prepped. This individual is strategic to say the least. All of the measurements and not to mention the well thought-out placement of gum drops are just a few examples of the tough considerations that this person handles regularly.

3. Pre-made Pillsbury cookies

Not to call anyone out, because these cookies are the bomb, but let’s not lie, these pre-made bad boys are for the last minuters. There may be a holiday party that you ran out of time to prepare something for, but everyone knows that these are always a crowd favorite. No judgment, but you’re probably slightly lazy, which is not a problem, because everyone loves you for your cookies!

4. Peppermint bark

This mostly chocolate treat is for a more refined taste. Not everyone is a huge fan of mint, especially when it’s mixed with chocolate. Those that can appreciate the combo are likely to be more open to trying new things and take risks when it comes to food. Think of it this way; peppermint bark does two jobs in one. It provides you with one of the best things ever invented, chocolate, and acts as a breath freshener with the mint. I guess that means that you’re the innovative type as well.

5. Decorated sugar cookies

Sugar cookies are the basics. Adding some holiday decorations is what helps to personalize this cookie. Although this person usually enjoys the classics and isn’t very picky, they occasionally like to jazz things up with some sprinkles or frosting. Not everything has to be simplistic, especially when it comes to desserts.

6. Snickerdoodles

The snickerdoodle is a classic and has been around forever. Its cinnamon sugar flavor and chewy texture have become a classic and a must when the holidays roll around. People that prefer the snickerdoodle are comfortable with what they’ve always done and continue their cooking traditions year after year.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
