I'm so glad you're here.
Especially today.
It's also the first day of winter! And the world didn't end, so that's good too.
~After today's day of work, I have 5 days off! Yeah, I went ahead and took an extra day off even though I wasn't planning on that. I just didn't want to feel rushed to get back to work after Christmas. I'll still have a 2 day work week, but I'm not complaining!
~Baking and drinks last night. What could be better? In case you missed it, I made Spice cookies over the weekend. Last night was Snickerdoodles! The recipe's in that link right there. These are two of my favorite holiday cookies!
~Finally finished up the holiday shopping. Just a couple little things left to get, and we're not doing a lot of gifts this year anyway. Most people are getting a variety of homemade cookies in cute containers (hopefully I didn't ruin that for anyone reading :) )
~We actually cooked a good amount of dinners this week instead of going out to eat. That's a really great accomplishment for us!
~I'm finally feeling better after a bad cold and ear infections.. it feels so good to be back to normal! Just in time for my birthday and Christmas :)
I'm not sure how much time I'll have for blogging over the next several days, but I hope that everyone has a great Christmas and if anyone is traveling, have a safe trip!!!
I always drink while I bake! I don't know why, but having a glass of wine or a beer while I'm making just seems right :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're feeling better!!!
I like your drinking while baking idea. Perhaps I should try that. One of my faves during this time of year is hot chocolate with Baileys. Give it a try! Glad you're feeling better!
ReplyDeleteBaking and drinking... love it! If I did this, there would be no cookies left to gift!
