Well, jingle my bells! Rob has found the perfect Christmas present for me! Shhh. Don't tell DH!

I just baked a dozen snickerdoodles, and SIX dozen of those peanut butter cookies with the kisses on them.

I didnt realize I made that much dough until it was too late

I like to make those kiss cookies, but I don't like peanut butter enough to eat them. Guess that would be a good reason to make them, huh?

I made 3 dozen shortbread cookies with jam filling yesterday and DH and DS have almost blown through the whole batch. I made a pumpkin cheesecake thing that we haven't touched yet, and DH has requested a Jello thing. I told him we need to make sure we have room in the fridge for the 13x9 pan before I go to the trouble of making it.

I decided over the weekend that I didn't have the time it would take to make gingerbread men. They were the only cookies I was going to make this year.

When I got home from work, Scott was taking the last pan of a batch of gingerbread men out of the oven.



Did I mention that he ROCKS? Cuz he totally does!

Merry Christmas to one and all!! Tonight I get to stay home and mellow out so I got a head start on the preparations for tomorrow and made my cheese cake ... and I'm drinking a very nice riesling. What ever you celebrate I hope you enjoy it! Best wishes to all of you. Oh, and Mike, this is for you:

I would like to join in and wish everyone a very happy holiday. We opened one present each already, as is the tradition of my family household.

Corey got a digital picture frame. She has been looking at them for about 3 years now and I found a major deal on a Kodak one with WiFi today at Walmart. They were supposed to be $265 marked down to $249, but the sticker said it was $228 marked down to $180. There were four on the shelf all marked the same. The funny thing is that the exact same frame without the WiFi capability made by Kodak was on the shelf for $179.97. For the additional 3 cents, I got Corey a much better frame!

I got something that I saw months ago in some junk mail magazine. I really wanted one, but I wasn't going to make the effort to order one. It's a caricature box by Martin Perry and it's in the shape of a little Walter E. Disney. He was part of a series of people honored for being the artists, authors, and composers that they were. They are made out of crushed marble, kind of like the Harmony Kingdom pieces are. Anyway, I was super surprised that she remembered it. Because it hasn't arrived yet, I got the picture of the piece wrapped up. I can't wait to be able to open it up to see what little symbol they put inside of the box. I would imagine that it's a hidden Mickey head, but time will tell.

Initially, Corey and I were not going to buy Christmas for each other this year, being that we spent a ton of money going to see the Mouse. But, given the way things turned out, she needed a pick me up and shopping therapy always seems to do just that for her, so we agreed to go ahead and buy some stuff for each other. I hope she likes the rest of her presents.

I'd like to add my own special Holiday Cheer to all my Dis Friends (Come on...admit it...you like me!)

It's been snowing here; a rarity for Portland. The snow was a foot high outside yesterday and no one knows how to deal with it! LOL.

I baked bread and cookies, made gravy and pasta and today we made shrimp, shrimp and more shrimp.

We had freshly fried struffoli for dessert..

Oh...and we watched A Muppet's Christmas Carol.. (it's tradition at our house)

WISHING EVERYONE A HAPPY AND HEALTHY NEW YEAR!
