The smell of Christmas Baking

[ticka1]

Well I am into my baking this evening. Have the house to myself - I have made the fudge, chow mein noodle cookies - otherwise known as haystacks. Next is the 15 min magic cookie, Rice Chex Mix, Azsnowman's Carmel popcorn and last but not least chocolate chip mergunie cookies.

I'll finish up tomorrow night with the popcorn and rice chex mix. Oh the joys of baking - the one thing that is my stress relief.

Ok, now ONE of the joys has to also be the Christmas baking EATING. Admit it, you had to do some sampling...

I'm gonna continue mine today with peanut butter balls and divinity. Was intending to do a little shopping but broke my toe (again) last night so will not venture out into the fray to have it stepped on.

Ticka, you baking any bread this year? I'm thinking about doing some banana bread and a chocolate chip loaf.

I haven't done any bread this year Bozo. I might do some strawberry bread for Christmas eve at my sisters's house. Send me a loaf of that banana nut bread - that sounds yummy.

Yes I do some sampling - isn't that what a good cook does??? But most of this I"m giving away as gifts - so it will all be good.

LOL....I'll still gain 10 lbs.!!!

Yes Willworkforfood - you probably won't get the goodies until after Christmas - but you will get them - via UPS.

hey send me some too. No I cant eat that stuff, yes I am making some goodies but I wont be eating them, going on a cruise in Jan, so trying to look at least somewhat good. Ticka I am making banana nut so will try and send you some, but the pumpkin bread is better.

Well, I am on vacation the week after Christmas. Seriously bummed to have to wait for treats, but wait I will. I need my fuuuuudge and coooooookies!!
