Because my left arm has been out of commission, the usual blitz of Christmas Cookies that springs from my kitchen didn't happen this year. Instead, Julie, Paula and I got together to assemble and decorate pre-baked gingerbread houses. Yeah, yeah, I know -- pre-baked? Me? The cookie freak?
It was A LOT more fun that I thought it would be! We all brought different candies which was SO COOL. Way, way, way more variety than any gingerbread house I've ever made on my own.
Yeah, I missed the smell of baking gingerbread... BUT Paula made tollhouse cookies while we played Santa's Bakeshop, and Julie cooked up a batch of her Mom's lip-smackin' sebeggi sauce. The house was filled with mouth-watering aromas, and it sure smelled like Christmas to me! What a lucky bunny!
And all I had to do was show up and have fun!
Having a flipper has some occasional advantages!Having kind hearted friends is even better :o)
Merry Christmas!
