The 12 days of Christmas cookies continues...
So what to do with December while waiting for (the dreaded) NCLEX than to decide I need to start a "12 days of Christmas cookies" idea... It doesn't take much debating or persuading to convince me I want to bake, actually it takes none. I would bake all day- everyday baking. With today being December 14th, there are officially 11 days til Christmas.. I've made 2 kinds of cookies this week so far- and planned for at least 2 on Sunday. Which leaves me with 8 kinds to decide on in 10 days (omitting Sunday since it's already pre-planned). Here's the game plan :
Dec 10- Choc Chip - Done!
Dec 12- Brownies.. Double batch- regular and choc chunk- Done!
Dec 15- Peanut Butter blossoms
Dec 16- Sugar Cookies Cut-outs and TBD
Dec 17- Hot Chocolate cookies
Dec 18- Snickerdoodles (Dads fav- a must have!)
Dec 19- Thumbprints
Dec 20- Butterscotch chip- maybe even explore something new..
Dec 21- Thin Mint (Also last day of work before Christmas break!)
Dec 22- Perhaps eggnog pound cake and maybe a ho-ho cake
Dec 23- Adriann's Choice ( Birthday girl needs to be able to pick!)
(These are some last years cut outs)
I'm sure I'll end up with another batch of chocolate chip in there somewhere- Since the first batch is already gone... Plus maybe some zucchini bread, gingerbread people and pumpkin rolls in the mix too.. Ah! So many other choices.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to challenge myself to post my studying times for my NCLEX studying as well.. maybe even a little motivating- ha!
Here's to Friday.. Its hunting season in Ohio this weekend- I'm ready!
