I'm sharing this year's goodies with those of you that don't bake:-)

Argh, I'm too late, apparently they are all gone already. At least I don't see anything at that link... :-[

Steve, I clicked on your message and went to the cookie link and among the messages are the recipes.                 I made my recipe Fri and my Michigan daughter and I frosted them yesterday.   
I did not use the whole amount of floor as they seemed right at 4 1/2 cups.     
Jan and Kate, she can drop off some to you when she flies home today and am sure will go over Chicago on the way to Michigan.              She is managing to make it here and back among the snowstorms.             The cold she didn't miss as we are below zero this am.

Steve -

you are not alone; I didn't see any picture either.  I got a message about needing a password or something.

Cheryl -

cookies - especially homemade - are always welcome, so tell your daughter to open the window and throw some my way  :D

I can relate to the sub-zero temps.  It was -23 yesterday and -19 today.  Supposed to warm up enough to snow tomorrow, though.  I can hardly wait  ::)

Stay warm,

Jan

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways

Jan, her flight got canceled today due to needing aircraft maintenance.     Her flight nows leaves 6 AM!           So you could have cookies for breakfast.               She was not happy about it today either.     I don't blame her.                   It is snowing now but not a big snow so she should miss the later in the day tomorrow snow.         It got 10 above today.              Heat wave!

That's because I needed to make it a "public album".  I guess I wasn't really into sharing the first time<grins>  That must be why the plate is half empty.
Trying again.

Anybody got a good diet recipe?   ;) ;D

Officially, Christmas will be over on Sunday for us, because we had to postpone because of all the snow, and my aunt has a nasty cold anyway.  So, the mixer gets PUT AWAY, and husband will have to get used to FRUIT for his dessert for awhile. 

And when this snow goes away, it's back to walking for me.

Awwww Jill Marie I'm tickled.. do you like them? aren't they cute? Jim kisses me lots when I make those ;)
Happy holidays to you my dear!
Donnalynn :-*

Been busy with all the Christmas fun so I haven't been on the board for a while.  I don't like fruitcake which is why I've never made it for my husband, that's why I wanted to try your Christmas Cakes, sounded like something I and others would like as well.  I do like them and boy are they ever cute, one has to try them just because they are cute.  I like the fact that you can try them because they are small and not worry about getting stuck eating something you don't like.  Didn't get to make/bake as many things as I would have liked to as I spent way to much time shoveling snow, we keep breaking records, got 8 more inches today, helped Hubby shovel and I'm beat, so that's it for today.  Jill Marie

Donnalynn,

Why wait for Valentines Day, let's pour on the rum for New Year's Eve! On the bon bon's of course! ;)  We're suppose to get another 2 to 6 inches of snow tonight so I'll most likely be using rum or something of that nature to ease the sore muscles tomorrow night.  We broke the record for the most snow in one month, the old record was from Jan. of 1950.  Happy New Year!  Jill Marie 8)

Wow, seeing this again reminded me of all the snow we had last year.  I don't know what the hubbub is about a White Christmas anyway!  Kind of messed ours up.
