It's 5:00am on a Sunday morning and I can't sleep. It occured to me that I had missed posting yesterday and since the house is quiet, I decided to get one done this morning.
I managed to sleep in a little yesterday. But Tatianna was here and cookies needed baked. Zach and Kim went hunting. Killian went shopping. Perigrine focused on cleaning, finishing the jerky and getting the space for the tree ready. Tatianna and I baked. We baked all day. Currently the aroma of anise is filling the house as the Springle cookies set. It is so much more fun to bake with my daughters.
Tatianna brought most of the dough so we just had to roll/form and bake. First Tatianna baked the snowball cookies while I ran errands and paid bills. Then we managed to get the cut out cookies baked with some help from the grand kids. Then we did the gingerbread cookies. Finally I mixed up a batch of Springle and got them setting. It was a productive day.
This afternoon we will frost and decorate the cut out cookies and gingerbread. Bake the springle and maybe mix up and bake another cookie or two. I would mix up the frosting now if it wouldn't wake up the whole house.
I also need to clean out my car. And we still need to make the venison sausage. But first there is church. Somewhere in there though I need to feed everyone. Last night it was Pizza because I was so involved in baking. It's going to be another busy day.
Do you ever get so wrapped up in a project that you forget to do the daily stuff? I do especially when I am working with my family.
