Christmas Cookie Weekend
















Most people don't believe that we make as much as we do. Here's the final count.
79 dozen cookies. (Sugar cookies, Ginger cookies, Gingerbread men, Raisen Rocks, Oatmeal-Coconut macarooons and Kiss Cookies)
4 batches of Almond Roca
4 batches of Fudge (THAT was almost a disaster. Long story. Let's just say that reading the fine print on a recipe is always recommended.)
2 batches of Chex Mix (Little clumps of Chex, sugar and Karo Syrup. OMG. It's so good. What diet?)
4 batches of Friggin Marshmallow Thingies. (This is the name they're given. Marshmallows, melted caramel and rice crispies. I've managed to avoid those so far.)
1 small bottle of Crown Whiskey.

We were relatively restrained on the alcohol use this year. We played Christmas music ALL weekend. In fact, we took a break Saturday morning to go and purchase more. (Brad Paisley's Christmas album ROCKS!!!!!)
Is it crazy? Heck yeah! Do Michelle and I have a blast doing it? Absolutely. It's a tradition. She and I have done it here, at my house, for three years now. Before that, I used to help her at her house (for the last ten years). It's one of my favorite Christmas traditions.
What is your favorite tradition?
