Today I went to my sister's house and we made Christmas baking. I had the entire day, without my kiddies. First time I have done that while in the same city as the twincesses. It was really great to have time with just my sister... we baked, had lunch (paninis made on her grill), talked, sang and danced. It was so much fun. I love being close in proximity to my sister, even though sometimes the time between our visits are long.
This year I am so much better at baking - less instruction and more getting in there then other years (C usually has to give me step by step instructions and tell me what to do next.) 6.5 hours later we have 4 different kinds of cookies - 40 cream wafers, 25 of orange cookies and 24 chocolate shortbread with candy cane sprinkles. The 4th is an orange cranberry pinwheel that you have to refrigerate overnight and then cut and bake the next day. They are all SO good and I will take a picture another day to show you. Can't wait to try the pinwheels once they are baked. Mmmm, Christmas baking.
