Sunday, December 23rd, also known as the day I pulled it all together. I finally worked up the courage to try the new Kitchen Aid that my mom bought for us/Cookie baking has never been easier. I no longer need to enlist the aid of my son or my husband to cream the butter and the sugar. This new handy appliance makes mixing and stirring a breeze. I made three different kinds of cookies.
First up, my favorite brown-edged butter cookies!Next up, chocolate chip with three different kinds of chocolate chips! Yum! Finally, oatmeal raisin cookies, with and without walnuts. After baking we saw the Nutcracker at the Scottish Rite Theatre and I finished sewing the binding on a holiday quilt I was making for our house.
Absolutely the perfect day to prepare for the holiday!
