It's strange not baking (literally) thousands of cookies this year. I've got three kinds done and they only total around 800. I tend to average between 3,000-5,000 each year, but I've had to stop sending out so many packages, mainly due to rising postage costs. I'm only mailing out three boxes this year and they are going to "family", i.e. my e-kids and best friend.
Working around Mom's ever-changing schedule is a challenge, but I'm managing.
The weather has turned cold and Herbie is quite perplexed. He keeps wanting to go out, feels the chill and runs back in. Ten minutes later he wants out again, thinking maybe NOW it will be warm. Unlike Spike, he doesn't seem to remember this happened last year, too. Poor baby.
Hugs,
