And so the pressure starts…. “Are you making Christmas Cookies this Year?”

Yep I was asked this question today.  The day after Halloween the PRESSURE IS ON!

Every year I say…”ya know, I think I might scale back this year”

And then this happens…

I become a cookie making machine.  (and this was HALF of what I use to make!!! HALF PEOPLE)

I swear Great Aunt Gertrude and Martha (the women who taught me how to bake) haunt me this time of year.  Its like their spirits live in flour, sugar and butter.

    These look so good I might just print the picture and chew on it.

    Lorena I actually don’t eat that many of them because I make myself sick eating cookie dough when making them. And I try to give most of them away.

    But for 2-3 days my diet is pretty much flour, butter, sugar and vanilla with some chocolate, caramel, nuts and dried fruit thrown in.

    I’m blown away. If I did that, the picture would look similar, but with me on the floor in a cookie-induced coma. You are my Christmas-cookie-making hero!
