This picture is for Missy! Yes, the rink is at my house...it fills my backyard! This is what I see from my kitchen window.
We had another bunch of kids skating here all afternoon today. Mike has a fire going in his Mancave and they are all outside leaving me in my nice warm house baking cookies with the Christmas tunes playing.
These are the cookies I baked for the cookie swap tomorrow. They are called Raspberry Ribbons and they are buttery and delicious with the raspberry jam in the middle. Yum. I had to lock them up so Mike wouldn't eat them before the swap. He's terrible, and I mean TERRIBLE for eating all my baking. I actually stopped doing cookie swaps a couple of years ago because he would eat it all all by himself. It was extremely frustrating going to the freezer to pull out treats for the company that would be arriving shortly to find the Tupperware containers empty. One year I hid it all in the garage right out in the open. He was so surprised when I had baking out one day, couldn't believe I pulled one over on him!! I don't know where I'm going to hide it this year. Maybe I'll just leave it down the street at Heather's and just go and get some when I need it. He'll never find it there!!
