Baking up a storm.

Yesterday afternoon Leon and I spent three hours in the kitchen doing some christmas baking first we made some stained glass window trees they are supposed to be for the tree but i can see them lasting long enough lol they look very pretty but they are horrible to get up off the tray.Then we made some short bread cookies from a recipie i always like to use its the same one we used for the halloween cookies in october and its just so easy to do we just have to dunk them into some melted chocolate later to finish them off yummy!!!Next Leon decide he wanted to make some cookies so he made these all by himself not too bad for a first attempt i must say!!!Then last but by no means least we made some mince pies and i hand made the pastry i must admit i normally cheat and use the prebought stuff but not this time i did this one all by myself and they are going down really quickly i was hoping to freeze some so we would have some over christmas without me having to make more but i was told that there is no chance Donny said he would eat them all before i have the chance i had one this morninf with a cuppa because after all that baking last night it was the last thing i felt like doing lol but saying that i did cook a curry after i had cleaned up.

So how is everyone else doing with thier christmas baking? It wont be long now you know!!!
