Second... I managed to get my Christmas decorations and TWO trees up early this year -- I put them two days after school was done. Anyway, it was early for me. LOL
Third... I did a bunch of Christmas baking today!

Snickerdoodles, and Maple Cookies. I still
have to bake the Sour Cream Sugar Cookies.
Lastly... I am making Sweet & Sour Meatballs and Crab-Stuff Mushrooms as the dishes-to-pass at Christmas dinner with my family. I made all the meatballs so all I have left to do is throw them in the crockpot with the sauce mix. I also did a test run on the stuffed mushrooms.
Cute ornament, I printed it out when you posted it. I have to try that ribbon edging one day.....maybe you can show me in person sometime! Love stuffed mushrooms, but I haven't found a way to keep them warm for very long.
ReplyDeleteYOu most definitely are in the holiday spirit. The cookies look delicious as do the stuffed mushrooms. When am I invited for dinner, lol!!
