We girls are baking oodles of cookies this afternoon. Here's our list so far...
Gingersnaps, Gingerbread People, Chocolate Crinkles, Lemon Ice Box, Scottish Shortbread, Peanut Butter, and Shortbread Pinwheels plus Sugar Cookies that the girls can decorate. For candy we're just sticking to sponge toffee, tiger butter and fudge.
Of course it will depend on what mood takes us when we get started baking in a few minutes.
Every year we take Christmas Eve to deliver cookies to our friends. With Christmas falling on a Sunday this year then we can deliver some of our cookies at church to our friends there and save some gas. But the delivering of the cookies is one of the highlights of Christmas for us. Right up there with doing a secret elf project where we deliver treats anonymously to friends and neighbours.
Kate is complaining...time to go cook!
We had a dream, like so many others before us, to live a simple and sustainable life on our own organic farm... so we drove from Vancouver Island, British Columbia to the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia, and we've been here nearly 6 years. We love life, learning, and sharing with others. Follow our adventures as we build a vibrant small family farm and work towards self-sufficiency using a combination of traditional methods, permaculture and original ideas.
