Last weekend we had our Christmas baking day. It of course ran off into the next day...then the next day. It never gets done in one day. It is always fun to try new recipes and have the family around sticking their grubby little hands out to "try" the stuff. Or whine because they can't eat that whole plate of fudge. The kitchen looked like a war zone. Alright, it didn't look that bad at all. We kept it fairly clean. Just the ingredients were all over the place. Here are a couple pictures of the one side of the counter.

Nice right? Looks messy but we knew where everything was! Maybe we were playing hide the
eca stack after all! So, I made Peppermint Bark Hearts and cute snowman head cookies. Here they are:
So cute! These recipes are a keeper! Both found in a Christmas cook book from Betty Crocker!
