I'm currently listening to music and waiting for Hank to get home from work, and then we are having a little night-before-Christmas Eve dinner get-together at Taj Mahal, a local Indian restaurant downtown. They have the most delicious food and I can't wait.
I also wanted to let you guys know that I added a search feature up there, at the upper right corner of my layout. My friend Lauren suggested this, and I think it will be a helpful tool for finding past entries. Try it, and let me know what you think!
And now, pictures...
me at this very moment, saying "HI!" (yes I was actually waving...nerd alert!)

you did a great job and that food display makes it even better. man i want your camera its so crisp. what model is it? do u know how much it cost?
ReplyDeletegreat pics. nice cookies. expect some pics of my own too soon. cookie time yeah.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could get the courage to try out icing on my cookies! Especially after seeing how cute yours are! So far I'm sticking with just chocolate chip and peanut butter this year. about 6 dozen of each?
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh those icing colours are awesome!
ReplyDeleteOh my god those candy cane cookies are about the cutest things I have ever seen. It's already Christmas Eve here on my side of the world so I'm pretty excited!
ReplyDeleteHope you have the best Christmas :D
awesome job!!!
ReplyDeleteyummmm what are those powder sugar covered things on the second tier? they look like these christmas cookies my neighbor used to make when i was a kid and i never figured out what they are. is there a filling in them?
ReplyDeletei am in the process of doing this right now! haha. i LOVE cookies and treats.
ReplyDeletemyownlittleuniverse- they're Mexican wedding cookies! Delicious! :) No filling though. Let me know if you want the recipe!
ReplyDeleteyummm! what are the green wreath things made of? they look very interesting! i've been baking all evening as well. love this time of the year for that reason.
ReplyDeletep.s. thanks for the search bar (and the link to me, haha) <3
What are Pull Away Wreaths? They look really good! PS it's tradition to always make Mexican Wedding Cakes at my house! I used to love them but I can only eat like one a holiday now!!
ReplyDeletelooks yummy!love all the colors!
ReplyDeleteim making rum balls all day tomorrow!
such a lovely display :).
ReplyDeletei'll be cooking up a storm tomorrow too. on the list:
*3 batches of peppermint bark
*homemade mashed potatoes
*bread pudding
AND...a million loose ends to tie up on presents. hmmm...i should probably go do that now instead of blogging.....
Those cookies look marvelous! And the colors are so vibrant!! <3
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of frosting or icing did you use? I tried royal icing for mine... it's the kind where it hardens when you let it sit for a while, so it was really hard to decorate! But on the upside, it comes out beautifully... What do you recommend??
que ricooo = means delicius!!! have a happy 24!!!

ReplyDeleteEverything looks so yummy. I can't imagine how amazing it will be once your sister in law opens up that bakery. I'm sure it'll be heaven for the eyes and taste buds.
ReplyDeleteThose look so delicious! I'd love to work in a bakery. Although I'd probably weigh a ton after the first month. Indian food for Christmas Eve...so jealous. :) You have a wonderful blog here and I'm so happy I stumbled upon it.
