Sugar Coma

I hope that all of you are having a wonderful holiday season so far, whether you celebrate Christmas or not :)

Some years I haven't been able to get much into Christmas for whatever reason, but I sure am this years. Today is day two of my cookie baking craze. It's just me and my red Kitchenaid taking on as many recipes possible. Baking massive amounts of cookies for my family and to give out as gifts is one of my very favorite holiday activities :)


I had a couple cookies yesterday turn out yummy but not all that cute so hopefully they all turn out cutely today ;)
If I have any really good ones I'll try to post some pics.


What is your favorite holiday tradition or activity that you do every year?

I had a good laugh when I found this recipe. When I first glanced at I thought it required you to add the gum to your cookies, thank goodness I was wrong.

This little girl looks pretty happy about those cookies doesn't she? I think she's had one too many already ;)

Even in a cute vintage picture, fruitcake still manages to look pretty nasty ;) hehe

Hope you guys enjoyed these pictures! Merry almost Christmas!
