Baking

A sampling of the eight dozen cookies I baked

Something about cold weather makes me want to eat, and eat, and keep eating. This time of year also inspires me to bake. If you know anything about me, then you know that I don't have any talent in this area. But I have perserverance.

I inherited (took) Granny's spritz cookie gun last summer. I was fascinated with the idea of shooting the dough out into cute little shapes. I'm still not quite sure how it knows to stop oozing dough at the end of each cookie. Hubby was amused that this was a new experience for me. Apparently Mother-in-Law used to make spritz cookies every year.

The kids don't like the cookies, but that's fine. I have been grazing on them and they won't last long!
