November is now in double digits, Christmas Open House less than a month away, not quite sure why I am having difficulty getting the baking rolling. At least my brain is starting to think in the direction of needing to bake! What will the list include this year since the baking will be done all in my own kitchen? Perhaps it is the thought of losing my daughters for help that is causing delay, can you understand why their thoughts would focus on their new babies instead of cookies? What will the list include this year? I need to narrow the cookie list and direct my attention to the kitchen. Of course the traditional family favorites need to be included: Frosted Sugar Cookies, Sandtarts, Chocolate Chip, Peanut Butter, and Springerlies. Then some individual favorites: Raspberry Danish Ribbons, Coconut Macaroons, and everybody’s favorite, Buckeyes will also make the cut. Will time allow for more? What new goodies will we try from Pintrest? I promise to keep you posted as we make progress on this most important piece of the holiday season.13cookies
