Make-Your-Mark Thumbprint Cookies

Everyone is a storyteller. It’s how our brain disseminates information. From nursery rhymes to religion to the human interest clips on the news. Stories swirl around our lives all the time. The story of your life is the imprint or the mark that you make on the world. Like these cookies, you can fill your life with different colors and hopefully, with a lot of sweetness.

The stories we tell ourselves set the stage for hope and joy.
