Elaine and John in town; passing through.
On their way to Arizona; one day before cold danger here.
Family together; tonight was terrific.
Cute colored cupcakes for the kid in all of us.

Cookies for Santa
With Santa coming, preparation is underway.
The tree is lit nearly 24/7.
Carols are sung spontaneously.
Today was food prep. Cookies were baked for Santa.
After all, he’s coming to town in 2 days.
We’ve certainly been good, but bribery can’t hurt.
The Benefit
The benefit to making Easter cookies is the special treat that mom lets you have at the end.
The prep
Adding sprinkles. The toddler’s role.
Removing the sprinkles to eat them.
Loving the cookie!
It’ll be hard to stop at just one!
Mickey Mouse Cookies
Elated at Target when we rode past the refrigerated cookies, Abby easily convinced me to purchase the Mickey Mouse version.
Our afternoon snack was also our afternoon activity.
The challenge…arrange 12 pre-cut small cookie dough disks on an ungreased cookie sheet (do not eat the raw dough prior to cooking).
Bake 8-10 minutes at 375 degrees.
Unbeknownst to Abby, we didn’t do well. 🙂
