Just a few cookies

We planned to bake some cookies. In just over six hours, and with six kids at times helping, and at times detracting we finished 8 types of cookies. Added to the few I had made last week, there are a lot of cookies in the house.

Clockwise from top: My mom's raisin bars, coconut macaroons, chocolate chip and orange chocolate (Martha Stewart, Cookies), Triple Ginger Cookies (Bon Appetit, Dec 2009), salted langue-de-chat (Gourmet, Dec 2007) to-be-baked sables -- cocoa with sea salt and pepper, and spice (Dorie Greenspan, Baking from my home to Yours), chocolate peppermint bark cookies (Bon Appetit, Dec 2009), Malted Chocolate Sandwich cookies (Martha Stewart, Cookies), sugar rolled Sables, lemon cranberry florentines (Bon Appetit, Dec 2009), Allison's rum balls. Not pictured: ruglelah (Dorie Greenspan, Baking from my home to Yours)

We had a little bit of taste-testing last night. Allen's partial to the ginger cookies, I like the florentines and the rum balls, and the rugelah, and the sables... It depends on my mood.
We're going to make cutout cookies when school lets out, and I want to make the chocolate cherry cookies that Marsha recommended. There are probably a few others too...
