I love all the cookies and candies Alexis Stewart made for people and how she packaged them (as seen here). I managed to make two different kinds of biscotti and some hot cocoa mix in a jar one year for Christmas. I also stamped all of my Christmas cards that year. Yes, this was before children; but if I could get my act together...I could do this again. There's no reason I couldn't! Maybe next year, I'll set aside a weekend day in October, one in November and once in December to bake & freeze, package and decorate.
I think it's time for my family (or at least for *me*) to return to Family Christmas Craft Days and possibly include some baking on those days!

I need to get my act together a little more and stop using having kids as an excuse for not doing complicated things! Of course, I only have 2 kids and mine are older than yours...so I *really* have no excuse! ;)
I've been saying I really want to start cooking, really cooking....ugh...this year is the first year I am not doing Christmas cards....I even did them last year with all I had going on....I have no excuse except I am tired....
Thinking of you and wishing you and your family a happy holiday and blessed new year!!!
Steph
