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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
