Wow!  This month has just blown right by.  It is hard to believe that tomorrow is Christmas Eve!   I love the holidays, but it feels like I’ve been running around in circles.  

Our PTA  hosted a holiday gathering at the school last week and we all made graham cracker gingerbread houses and got a visit from Santa.   My girls also had a holiday party at preschool last week, so my mom and I went with them and made MORE graham cracker gingerbread houses!  Then, my sister-in-law and I decided it would be great to get all the kids together (she has three boys) to frost and decorate cookies and then go see Christmas lights on Monday night.  SO, they all came over and we frosted so many cookies, I am about to upchuck just thinking about it. 

Aside from the chaos of several sugar-induced tantrums, we’ve had a whole lot of fun this season.  The decorating, the baking, the shopping, the eating.  And I discovered that some of the ready-made sugar cookie dough which you can buy in the grocery store, doesn’t contain dairy!  It does, however, contain eggs.   Since I’m the only one around here allergic to eggs, this works out just fine for me.  Bring on the Bourbon Balls!

Happy Holidays to you and yours.
