Christmas is in 13 more day

OH MY!!!  Christmas is in 13 more days are you ready? I am not.  I have lots of shopping to do I have barely even started.  There is so much to be done and so little time left.

 I have a lot of baking to do.  I promised my nephew I would make him chocolate chip cookies and send them to him for Christmas along with his Christmas gifts.  He lives in Arizona so I have to get this done in the next day or two to make sure they arrive on time.  Also Anthony has been asking for cookies so I will add those in and I need need to make something for my Math class tomorrow morning we are having a pot luck so maybe I will bring cookies for that also.  It looks like I am going to be making a lot of cookies this year.  Two of my girls also have class projects coming up that they need help with one is due on the 14th and one the 19th.  You will never guess what they need to bring to school.  COOKIES.  We  have to make enough for each of their classes.  It was a health class assignment were they had to take a cookie recipe and change the recipe to make it healthier.

Also the girls want to start a craft project tonight that they would like to give as gifts.  It is a handmade Christmas tree ornament made out of a special dough that we fragrance and cut into shapes.  We have made these in the past but this year we are going to try a new shape a dog bone made into a puppy face.  Tonight I will photograph them and post them on here in the next few days so you can see what they look like.  Maybe I will give one of my recipes out with it so you can try to make them yourselves.  It is a great kids project and they have a lot of fun with it.
