Cookie Day!
Friday, December 11th, 2009
Ooh, today I get to bake cookies.
I used to bake a fair amount. Then, when the gluten restrictions hit…less so. And since we’ve moved? Not so much.
Combining households with little to no time to plan, combining kitchens, taking a very long time to do either (still not really done yet, since we’ve known for ten months that we’d be relocating right about…now–and we are)…that put a damper on all cookie activities. It’s not really a functioning household. Not truly a functioning kitchen. It’s on hold and it has been.
And now that we’re packing in earnest again, and traveling to and fro across the valley and through the pass to the new home-in-preparation (really, we need a Tardis), we’ve come up against the second holiday season in a row that…isn’t.
However. Tomorrow I’m going to an agility holiday gathering. And I shall have COOKIES.
So today I am baking in my token holiday effort. I expect it to smell good. I expect to watch the stove like a hawk, because I haven’t done cookies in a gas stove before. And I am allowed to TASTE ONE!
Yummmmm. May you all have cookie days this season!
