    "For every cup of applesauce, I add two or three tablespoons of white school glue - the nontoxic kind, just in case somebody licks their fingers while making the ornaments. It's an optional ingredient, but the glue seems to add a little elasticity to the dough, making the finished ornaments just a bit sturdier. "

    Have fun with these!

    My mother just unpacked a few ornaments I'd made when I wrote this article... as soon as she opened the tin, she said they smelled just wonderful!

    Thank you, I really would have hated wasting all that cinnamon & applesauce!
    Now, where did I put those cookie cutters, hmmm.
    Happy Christmas!

    The glue isn't a necessary component, but I think it makes the final product a little tougher. I certainly wouldn't run out and buy white glue for the recipe, but if you have some on hand, squirt a little in.

    Merry Christmas!
