Good afternoon all!

Would any of you like to come to my house to bake, clean and wrap?

I have almost finished shopping, just need a few stocking things. Nothing is wrapped!

Kitchen is a disaster, Julia made some cookies last night....they taste great but OMG she is a messy cook!

Caught the traditional Christmas cold that makes it's way through work,, I have been dragging since Friday.

Laundry is started, dinner will be started soon, chicken pot pie. Maybe I will figure out the last of the stocking things needed and go purchase and spend the evening wrapping. Depends on the energy level, it is dropping fast.

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

We have a rule about making cookies or other "fun" things - you cook you clean, where is she?? that is part of learning how to cook

I am done shopping, other than ordering tickets to West Side Story tomorrow (payday). I may run over to Bath & Body Works for their wallflowers sale on Thursday, but I don't NEED them, just a bonus for my mother's stocking.

Not one gift is wrapped, but I did finish my baking on Saturday, Morgan and I made cranberry chocolate chip macaroons and ginger molasses cookies. I plan to stay in my PJs on Thursday and wrap, wrap, wrap! I'm going to ask my mother to come and help, it will at least get her out of the house. Need to make a lasagna on Saturday, possibly a baked brie, depends on how generous I feel

Hope everyone is feeling well!
