Christmas Prep
Last night I was unable to make my usual post because I was busy gift wrapping. I hate waiting until the last moment to gift wrap. It feels rather pointless for me to make the gifts all pretty only for others to destroy it a short time later. I’ve done it as late as Christmas Eve, and trust me… that sucks. Do you have all your gifts bought yet and if so, are they all wrapped? I actually still have some more to do, but I won’t see those people until after the holiday, so there’s no rush but I’d still like to get them done soon.
Today I’ll be doing a lot of holiday baking. Every year we make a gingerbread house with a recipe that has been passed down through the generations. It’s my job to make the template for the house so it all fits together (yay high school drafting classes!). No prefab for us! I’ll also be making my favorite orange, chocolate cookies and my mint chocolate pinwheel cookies. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I have to go to work so this is my only day to bake my cookies. Too bad you can’t be here to share in them, but trust me… they’re tasty. ^_^
Are all your holiday preparations done yet?
