With Kent being out of work all year--the idea of Christmas has been daunting. Knowing that all things will be pared back, in August I started looking at how on earth will I be able to afford Christmas.
It started with Christmas baking. I started every week buying one or two things that I needed to bake the usual stuffs that I bake.
Today, the oven went on at 10 am and I just turned it off at 8.31 pm. My feet now "up" .... the days is over...although I still have a number of things left to do ... my candies and cookies are well underway.
So today I accomplished:
- Chocolate Fudge
- White/Dark Chocolate Bark
- Shortbread
- Rosemary, Cranberry Orange Cookies
- Turtles
- Slated Caramel Chocolate Coconut Bonbons
- Lemon thumbprint cookies
Left to do:
- Cranberry, white chocolate, pistachio shortbread
- Kipfel
- Raspberry kisses
- Haystacks
- Lemon tarts
