Sad

I have no Christmas spirit this year. I am just plain sad. I really have nothing to complain about. I have a beautiful family, food to eat, a roof over my head, and the ability to give my kids a good Christmas, regardless of the economy. But I am still selfishly sad. I haven't even been able to bring myself to do my baking yet, although it really MUST be done tomorrow. I hope this feeling changes soon :(

Ok, the baking plan

I have finally decided exactly what I will be making for my Christmas baking! And after blowing $50 at the Bulk Barn, on top of whatever I spent at Walmart, it had better be good! I am making Nannie's Chocolate Balls, Double Chocolate Fudge, Turtles, sugar cookies and I am trying something new this year. 2008's new addition to the line-up will be "Killer Crack Peanut Butter Fudge". This recipe comes courtesy of one of my favourite bloggers,Cookie Baker Lynn. Hopefully, it becomes a favourite! Now I just need to find the Fluff. Who knew I wouldn't find it at Walmart??? http://cookiebakerlynn.blogspot.com/2007/12/warning-hazardous-material.html

Almost Christmas??

Seriously?? Where has the time gone? I can't believe we are nearly at the end of another year. The kids are super excited for Santa to come this year and I just might have to fake them out with a call from Santa himself(Uncle Christian). I am really trying to "fake it till I make it!", as Dana would say. I am confident I should be in the Christmas spirit by this weekend. Crazy baking here I come!
