Good Morning! I don't know how it happened but a magical Christmas Elf just let me post on Blogger through Windows 10!!!!It's a Christmas Miracle!!!! I have hesitated blogging because of the trouble with the two programs rebuffing one another but today it's great :)
We've been busy here, like all of you I'm sure. Getting everything ready for Christmas~~~so excited. Caitlin and I made several batches of cookies--some our recipes and some that are my Mom's and since she is unable to make cookies any longer by herself, we made her recipes too! I actually did complete one of my resolutions from New Year's for 2015 and that was to be a better cookie baker and I did it! I make some good cookies, if I do say so myself!
Caitlin is doing peanut butter cookies:
These are my Mom's recipe for Butter Crispies:
We brought some to a Christmas party at my Godmother's house, and they loved them. With all the boys together and all the appetites, they all went fast! My Caitlin was the only girl! I'm happy my husband was home from his trip to South Carolina to make the party!
Here are some photos of my decorating in the kitchen/dining area:
Well, I think I'm gonna do some wrapping and then I'm off to do a couple of errands! Have a great day!
I'm so glad you are able to post to your blog again. I keep forgetting to ask if you are using Google Chrome as your web browser. Internet Explorer and Blogger do not like each other. How fun that you are able to carry on your mom's cookie tradition. They look amazing. I'm sure Caitlin had fun helping you out too. Christmas hugs!

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you resolved your posting issues. Hearing all that made me decide to by pass the windows 10 download.It's not as if we don't have enough problems with blogger.
ReplyDeleteYour house looks lovely. I ended up putting up more than I'd planned. Don't know where all that energy came from, but I'll soon catch up with you! :D Merry Christmas!
