The start of the Big Christmas Baking (TM)

[wiseheart]

I'm really late this year, like with everything else. The charity fair, which is next Thursday, had priority, plus I caught a cold during the concert and am sick like a dog again.

In any case, I decided not to celebrate the usual baking orgy this year. I'm just tired and not in the mood. So I made oatcakes with dates today, as well as peanut cookies with chocolate, and I'm planning to make about five or six other sorts, tops. Perhaps less. In exchange, I might make a festive Christmas cake this year.

As usual, the recipes are here on my journal. Klick on the cookie recipes tag and you'll find them all.

In other news, the Advent calendar is going on surprisingly well. I have half the stories covered and hope I'll be able to come up with the other half, too.

Glad the Advent calendar is going well! There's no point in holding any kind of an orgy unless you're in the right mood :)

You put a very different mental image in my head, you know... ;)

I hope it made you smile :)

Happy, that the Advent is going well! If you don't feel up to it - no sense in a full on baking orgy.

No indeed. Baking is supposed to relax me, not to put additional stress on me.
