Christmas is coming

Yes...it is on it's way and we can't stop it. Nope. It is the 14th already?!

I decided to make cookies today. Nothing spectacular about that, except they are Christmas cookies, the same 2 kinds I make every year. Jewel Brooches and Spritz. That's it. Don't give me any recipes, don't tempt me to make something else. This is the way it is.

So, I get my Jewel Brooches done, superb as usual, they'll be gone by dinner. Next up, spritz. I have this nifty Mirro cookie press that squirts out trees, camels, wreaths...it's all good. Then I heard a clunk. Broke. The screw press thingy stripped and it will press no more. No problem..will go out and get another one. Wrong.... it is now called vintage and is only found on Ebay. So, Steve is on his way to the mall to find the next best thing. I am pretty sure it won't work half as good as the old fashioned screw press. Now I'm really irritated.

That's it... next year we are skipping Christmas.
