3 picture books I read at library. The one by Pinkney is really precious, and How To Trick An Elf is cute. Christmas Cookies is a book of lessons, well done.

Christmas cookies are a favorite #holidaysnack, but I‘m utterly inept at baking them myself, so I buy them instead. One with a nice cup of coffee while curled up with a book is total heaven!

Just read this sweet little book, the holiday version of one we‘ve enjoyed for a couple years. Each is a nice little way to illustrate qualities like gratitude, charity, sharing, etc.

I did get a little sad on the cookies for Santa page - last year my boy kitty licked all the sugar off the molasses cookies we left out and the cats didn‘t get anything from Santa. Now they‘re both gone and I‘m still heartbroken.

Let the great spoiling continue!

Merry Christmas!

Last batch of Christmas cookies on the cooking rack!! (I know I‘m over sharing today, but this is my favorite part of the holiday season!)

Had to make a quick trip to the store. Now it‘s time for the next round of cookie making!

Christmas cookies!!! #letthechristmascookingcommence

On to holiday baking! Homemade toffee anyone?! #audiobooks

I did find some motivation and I finished my cookies... 11 batches in less 24 hours... not bad!

Trying to work up the motivation to finish the baking list but this seems like a much better option...

After a busy day of baking I am now curled up by the tree!

My goal for the weekend is to get all of these made... wish me luck!!!

The Christmas cookie baking has begun.

Lots and lots of baking has been happening. This doesn't include the tins that my family has already devoured or that have already been given away!

My book club takes December off each year to decorate Christmas cookies together.

How I wish I had time to make cookies like these pictured. Alas, I'll have to stick to those in books. It's day 5 in the #12daysofXmasphoto challenge. Let's see some #cookies. 🎅🏻
