Christmas Cookies~

               

The kitchen was bustling with baking and decorating cookies today...

Christmas is almost here....

Christmas Baking

Busy, busy working in the Christmas kitchen baking cookies,
 bread, cakes and making gift bags to put them in. Whew....
I feel like an elf in Santas workshop.

 
We got out all our favorite cookie cutters
 to use for the cookie cut outs.

  

I also made some candy...Yummy white chocolate,
 peppermint bark...plus I dipped pretzels filled with peanut butter
 into dark chocolate peppermint...Delish!

I also made a Christmas cake for the Christmas party we went to...
 And my dear Freacles and Darling Nephew helped
 decorate all the sugar and gingerbread cookies.

  

Pair up yummy desserts with a cup of hot tea...And all the magic starts!
Now to finish off the butternut squash, banana, and cranberry loafs for gifts.
What are you baking for Christmas??

It's Cookie Time!

We love to bake Christmas cookies.

Miss Freckles has a blast in the kitchen.

We cheated on this though.

We actually used a Pillsbury Sugar Cookie mix.

They still tasted pretty homemade.

The best part is decorating them!

We will be visiting Gramma over the weekend,

baking LOTS more cookies and fudge YUMMY!

Have a sweet Weekend!

My favorite drink to have with sugar cookies is Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride Tea by Celestial Seasons.
