Happy Holidays!

The Bag Lady had yesterday off from work, so did some baking. She made another batch of shortbread (the first batch mysteriously disappeared....), butter tarts and fiddle diddle (using Sagan's recipe!)

She has to work today, then has a couple days off, then works the morning of Christmas Eve. Uh oh. That means that Christmas is only four days away! Time to panic....

She may not get around to posting very regularly this week. (especially now that she realizes how little time she has left to get everything done!)

So, in case she doesn't get another chance, she'll wish you all a Merry Christmas! Hope the season is full of peace and joy for you all.

    Have a wonderful Christmas, Baggie. I'm sure we'll get that phone call in before the new year is old enough to be out of diapers. Maybe even before this one is gone. Hugs to you, my friend. :)

    4 days, hm, guess I should bake then. If I bake too soon and it disappears I have no one to blame but myself ;)

    Merry Christmas dear Sister! Talk to you later.

    The disappearing shortbread must've been because of me!

    Merry Christmas!

    I decided yesterday not to bake things for all the neighbors. Last year we moved in at the beginning of December, and this year I haven't started a tradition yet...maybe I shouldn't.

    You have a restful holiday, BL!

    I know what you mean about the days flying by...I've decided that whatever doesn't get done doesn't matter. Meanwhile, I hope you have the best holiday, ever. All things bright and beautiful.
