Holiday cookies

I am all about living in and enjoying the NOW. And now is the time to make holiday cookies. If you’ve been reading this blog from last year (thank you very much) you will know that there are five cookie recipes that I make every year.

When you do something like this, you’re making memories. Memories during the time you’re making them, to who stopped by for more or hoped some would be left at Eastertime (who are they kidding?), or notes we received after giving some as gifts. This is what life’s all about, isn’t it? Create the great times, which in turn create the memories.

This weekend we have guests, our dear friends Carl and Roger, and I’m hoping to enlist them in rolling cognac balls in sugar and helping with the Hello Dolly Squares. (I know, such a silly name!)

I hope you make some memories this weekend too!
