Keeping Busy In The Kitchen
I finally made up my mind on what to make for the MOPS Spa Night, and I’ve been busy in the kitchen all morning. The Little Miss and Dylan were there to help me out too. So far I’ve got the Raspberry Balls chilling in the fridge, and waiting for a drizzle of White Chocolate. I’m half-way through baking Mini-Red Velvet cupcakes that I will frost tomorrow. I’ve got lunch to make too, so I had better get back to it.

I need some help making up my mind. Next week is our MOPS Spa Night, and the Steering Team is in charge of the goodies. I have no idea what to bring, but I have 3 recipes that I have wanted to try out for awhile. One recipe is for Oatmeal Raspberry Bars, another is for Peanut Butter Bon Bons, and one last one is for Raspberry balls. I could always make my Nana’s Coconut-Orange candies, they are good too. So many to choose from, I might just make all four.

It took 2 days and one awesome helper, but we finally got all of the Christmas Cookies finished.
Stacey-cakes and I ended up making 479 cookies! It was so much fun too, but I don’t think I want to bake cookies again for a long time.
We moved all of the cookies into the dining room to assemble the plates and trays. The kiddos had fun hanging out in the living room, and snagging a few cookies too.
Even James couldn’t resist the cookies.
We assembled 20 plates, 4 trays, and we both had a few left over for our families too. It was a blast baking Christmas cookies with my best buddy.

Christmas Cookie Baking part 2
I started early this morning right after I dropped Thade off at school, and I just finished at 9:00 p.m. this evening. I have been baking cookies all day, and I’m not even close to being done.
If you counted them all up there are 295 cookies in this picture. So far I’ve finished the Wedding Cake Cookies, Thade’s Super-Awesome Double Chocolate Cookies, Candy Bar Cookies, Chocolate Oatmeal No-Bakes, and a big batch of Peanut Clusters.
Tomorrow my cookie baking buddy Stacey-cakes is coming over to help me finish up the rest of the cookie menu. We’ll be baking Snickerdoodles, and James Favorite Oatmeal cookies, and plating all of the goodies for delivery on Thursday and Friday.
I think I’m going to call it a night, and get the kitchen back in order.
