Coooookies!

The doughs for gingerbread and for sugar crisps are chilling and shortbread is next, once the butter softens. Tomorrow it'll be chocolate & peanut butter cookies and hopefully rumballs, if I can pry the bottle away from the BF. I haven't baked cookies in years -- I'd forgotten how much fun messy it is. : ) And raw cookie dough: nommmmmmmm.

Waiting for the big snow to start! What're you guys up to?

Kids are home from college, so I'm food shopping. Good luck with the storm.

Snow started here about 8:30pm. My daughter and I are staying put with Hank, the boxer, and 2 cats. Kind of have to since 2 cars are in the shop and son took my car to a freelance gig shooting a sweet 16 party.

Susan in St. Louis here! I am trying to avoid making cookies, but your little homily to cookie making is breaking down my resolve. Plus the Italian lady just sent me her recipe. Maybe if I say to myself that I will give them all to the postman....

Can't wait for annoying family to go home so we can start our tranquil holiday.

Love your blog. Thanks so much. You kids and the Rude Pundit make many of my days.

Susan
