Christmas Baking

                                            CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN

                                                      Just 1 more day

Today was fun and filled with memories of Christmas from long ago. There were moments of sadness, nostalgia and wishing 'what if'. 

Michael and I drove up to Shirley's where we baked Apple Cookies. I'd say they were my hubby's favorite but most food was his favorite, so I'll just say that he really liked them. 

Michael and Shirley's hubby, John, kept up a tradition of putting together a fruit cake. It's the crushed graham cracker, raisins, cherries, toasted pecans etc. with condensed milk to bind it all together. It's a no bake! You just press it all back into the graham cracker box. Yes, it fits. 

Shirley made us some yummy chicken quesadillas for lunch. Christmas music was playing in the background. Just like we've done off and on for years and years. Nice to keep up the traditions that bind a family together. 

I'd post pictures of our baking but dummy here left her camera at Shirley's. At least it will still be there for our Christmas morning activities. 

It's no comment time.
