Food, however, begins early in the month. I love spending time in our fabulous kitchen with it's huge island baking all sorts of cookies. I love deciding each year which ones we will make - and I know the boys love choosing their favorites~
I also love finding new things that we have never tried and experimenting a bit. Thankfully this is the season when wonderful recipes are readily available~
With apples abundantly in stock at most markets and grocery stores, I definitely want to try these~
How incredibly delicious does this look???
The boys will absolutely adore these~
As well as these!
And who wouldn't want to make hot cocoa like this???
So, please expect me to put on a *few* extra pounds this season, as I really am in the mood to bake and you know how much I love eating~
Bon appetite!

I may just be able to make it for dinner ... hold the entrée, I'm on my way ;-) The pounds? Nothing that a couple of jogs won't get rid of ...

Keep some of that hot cocoa warm for me!
I'll be there as soon as I can!
The hot chocolate-the cookies. It's my favorite time of year to spend hours and hours in the kitchen baking. I take cookbooks to bed each night and make my lists. Just yesterday I went shopping and got sinful amounts of chocolate and butter........
Oh lord. I am in trouble. My mother just gave me a stack of her old cook books and I couldn't help but squel in delight at the one that said:
COOKIES
I think i gained 5 lbs. just reading your post. I can't wait until January.. that's the time I bunker down and loose my extra holiday goodies!! lol.
These all look scrumptious! You will put me to shame ~ but I think I have already started gaining my Christmas pounds and that my friend is NOT a good thing!
It all looks soooo good!

A few extra pounds?? I've gained about 20. I think I started celebrating the holidays at the end of Summer. YIKES--I have a little work to do in January.
Miss you!
