Don’t you find that November and December are super busy?  I do.  Today was hiking day, our hiking club goes out every Tuesday morning, rain or shine.  That’s not usually a problem because we live in central Arizona and it hardly ever rains and snows even less.

Of course I’m in full swing on holiday preparations; indoor and outdoor decorations are up, Christmas cards have been made and mailed, cookies have been made and yesterday was the first cookie exchange of the season, at least for me.  It’s my custom to make some candy too.  As a celiac, I find it hard to purchase candy so every Christmas I make truffles, peppermint patties and peanut butter cups.  Yum!  I don’t get them any other time of the year so it’s pretty special to me.  The rest of the family thinks so too.  Our favorite cookie is the snowball, also known as the Mexican Wedding Cake or Russian teacake cookie.  What’s your favorite cookie?  Comment on the blog to share with us.

I love this time of year, and do my best to enjoy it no matter what part of the world I’m in or what’s going on around me.  I hope you do too.  So if I don’t get to say so later, every have a wonderful and safe holiday season.
