rayvyn2kWell, I'm exhasted. This past weekend I baked so many cookies---
I baked about 8+ dozen triple chocolate chip, 4 dozen molassass crisps, 6 dozen Italian wedding cookies and probably 20 dozen chocolate chip cookies. Plus I baked 6 mini loaves of pumpkin bread and made 6 pounds of fudge.
I still may bake some oatmeal cookies...but I'm not sure. I definately am going to bake some bananna nut bread, though.
All this industry is to give as gifts to co-workers, both mine and hubby's. Also I'm going to make a "goodie" basket as a gift for his best friend whose wife does not bake.
I got my bakin' jones on this weekend---that's for sure. I hardly noticed that it is colder than a witch's (forgive me, my wiccan friends!) tit outside. I am not looking forward to going to work in the morning. Thank goodness it's only a three day work week for me!!
In other news, we got all of our "out of town" packages mailed off on Saturday. The largest one, going to Florida, cost 25.00 by itself! Partly because it's oversized as well as heavy. Well, it's okay...I am so happy to have it sent off and my family will all have their gifts on Christmas day! I also sent off the KA secret Santa gift and a couple of other packages to friends who may not be expecting them. Hee!
I love giving gifts to people.
On Thursday, while hubby is at work, I am going to wrap his stuff. And I still want to get him one more thing...if I can find the right model. And I need to get stuff for his stocking.
I guess, in spite of myself, I'm getting in the spirit.
OH, I forgot to tell you all--one of my Christmas gifts is a porcelain model of Hogwarts, which lights up inside and has a sound effect like an owl and a bell tolling. It's awesome. They have the Quiddich field and Hagrid's hut too.
And we put up our small fiber optic light tree, too. There aren't any ornaments on it (hubby forgot the box at his folk's house) but it's festive anyway. And I won an ebay auction of miniture HP character ornaments so may be they will come in time.
I guess that's all for now.
