I decided Friday that I really needed to make some Christmas cookies (especially since we are responsible for the special treat for Zoe's class party at school)... Saturday afternoon I headed to the store to purchase all the needed ingredients for 3 kinds of cookies... I got home and started the Christmas music... I decided to start with the Sour Cream Cut Out cookies at 2pm... this turned out to be a mistake. The kids left me after the first batch to go outside and play in the snow with the neighbor kids. I proceeded to make 2 more batches... not really realizing how many cookies I really had. At 10pm last night (I did take a short break to eat supper), I was still frosting and thinking to myself... "what an idiot...". Needless to say I still have 2 dozen to frost into snowmen with all the adorable fixins and really have no desire to complete them. I did get the other 12 dozen frosted before I retreated to bed last night. I have decided to leave the other 2 kinds of cookies for next weekend. So in other words... I have cookies coming out of my ears... and will probably be gaining a good 10lbs in the next couple of weeks.
And now today I am battling a heck of a cold, thanks to all the wonderful little ones in my life... and 2 children that just want to go out and play in the mud since all of the snow has pretty much melted.
