Baking, Creating and Nibbling along the way...

Two magic days until Christmas. I am jammed packed with company and parties until the end of the year. So I have had to put the apron on and start getting creative.

Key Lime Squares are baking right now, the Oatmeal and Butterscotch cookies are cooling, the Ooey Gooey Pumpkin Cake is next in line. After that, the Olive Pinwheel Bread will be the final creation for tonight.

Tomorrow is a whole new ball game. I am making prune cake. I am serioulsy excited about this. Also, I am making mini shoofly pies for my recently widowed friend. He specifically asked for them. Then for the dinner party its the Prime Rib and Italian feast.

Whew I am tired. Buzzer is going off, time to go...

Shakin' and Bakin' for me today

Getting all my stuff together for my bake off and shaking the house up for the Christmas decorations. I usually have my tree up by now, but I have been down and blue. Can't seem to get in the mood. But today I will get the baking started and hopefully the spirit will come to life!

On tap to bake today: cookies and rice crispy treats for the little girl down the street.

Plus the other 700 dozen cookies for the gift baskets.

Wish me luck!

So much to do...It's time to bake the cookies

Christmas baking is one of my favorite things to do. This year I am making a few extra baking items to give away instead of the nondescript token gifts that I could buy.

On tap will be lemon bars, oooie gooie pumpkin cakes, pecan bites, sugar cookies, italian wedding cookies, and spritzs. I cannot forget my favorite chocolate dutch mint cookies either. Next I will start on the pies and cakes. But for now, it's cookie time...
