doin' good.
We had a very productive weekend so I think I can relax and enjoy this next week. I got the cookie bags done, Pete bottled his amazing mustard, and then with Sadie's help, we actually made these little gifty crackers for our small friends, which I wasn't sure was actually going to happen. They have chocolate coins and either a stretchy frog or a paratrooper inside. Not too shabby. Pete choose the gifts. I heat Cost Plus.
Here are the bags all ready for the freezer. I think the ginger cookie flavor in there might be leaching into the butter cookies, but what can you do.
Okay, things are good. We dressed up on Saturday night and went to Pete's office holiday party which was so fun. Too much fun, perhaps? I wonder if I need to get out more. I had a really good time. I think I need to get out more.
And wow, kiddley has been rockin my world-there are so many cool ideas over there right now, I can't believe it! I think my project will be up this week, and keeping in the theme of my sugar obsession, it's cooking related.








cute and cute. oh and yum!

Sorry, I tried for the tord a few weeks ago and they were indeed out when I went back the very next day, anyway, thanks for the Kiddley plug I cannot get enough of it! Have a great Christmas!

Beautiful gifts--your friends are so lucky.

these references to the famous mustard have me incredibly curious... is there a recipe that can be shared? probably not - he'd have to kill me or something, right?
and, I *so* hear you on the office parties and not getting out enough... after those ultra-rare social occasions, I always come home basking in the glow of good conversation, levity, and fun. there's something about having (non-work) adult conversations... we've got to find some way of bringing more of that around, no?!?

Love the packaging of your cookies. I've been planning on making cookies for family, and have been looking for a not-too-fussy way to wrap them - I have my answer now!
Thanks!
