OK, I just don't associate cotton candy with December. Sure, it has a certain winter/snowy look to it, all fluffy, but I associate it with carnivals and amusement parks and maybe parades. In other words, to me, cotton candy = summer.

But today is National Cotton Candy Day. You can learn about the history of the classic treat at Wikipedia, and then after that you can make some Cotton Candy Sugar Cookies. You can even use red and green sugar if you want to make them Christmas cookies.
