Christmas Cards

This is certainly the busiest time of the year. I did some baking-today- still trying to work on the new recipes.Banana bread next. I have never made a banana anything because I can never wait for the bananas to get ripe enough for baking. The resident tester will have to check if chocolate cookie recipe is worthy of being posted and included in the cookbook that I have been preparing. I collect recipes that are guest worthy and for special meals. They must be tested first and the resident tester must have sampled the wares. 41 pages in the current cookbook.
It isn't the baking that has kept me away from the blog; I try not to bake too much or I will need to sign up for Jenny Craig and I am not sure that I am ready to sample someone else's cooking. The good part is that you would not have dishes from the mess of preparing food. Now, that is a plus worth some thought.
No, I am busy responding to cards that I did not expect. There are some people who I have not seen for years but it seems that I am still on their radar and I have received a card from them. Nice to be remembered and the cards do bring back memories of trips and work, both good memories. Thank goodness for computers, I can print off more copies of my Christmas letter which as some of you might remember, I composed at least a week ago.
Hoping to post the chocolate cookie recipe tomorrow and now it is time to print off some more newsletter.
