So, did everyone have a wonderful Thanksgiving??

We had a smaller crowd this year for Thanksgiving.  The weather wasn’t the greatest but the falling snow was pretty and definitely put me in the holiday spirit.  We all had a wonderful time and are so thankful for the wonderful family and friends we have in our lives.

I, of course, made way to much food and probably had enough food leftover to do Thanksgiving again!  But I don’t mind leftovers because even though I love to bake and cook, I do really enjoy a break too! 🙂

Did anyone go out on black Friday???

We braved it and we got all of out Christmas shopping done!!!!!  I am so happy to be completely done and I think this is the first year where I won’t have to worry about getting all those gifts at the last minute!  Yea, do a little happy dance with me!

However, I can’t believe how crazy the people can be on black Friday!!  Luckily, we weren’t in the middle of any major brawls!

Well, I am on my own again for the next two weeks as my husband will be away for work once more!  I do hope this will not become a permanent routine of being gone for two and home for one!

    This was a disaster, I am wondering if 1 hour in the frig for dough , mine spread out & covered the whole piece of parchment, 1 flat , thin giant piece of dough. Yes I am an experienced 50+ years baker. What happened..?.?

    • I am sorry they didn’t turn out for you! Just a question did you refrigerate, just a little confused with your comment if you did or not.

      • OMG—- I am So sorry….. I retraced my steps and realized I only put in 1/2 the flour!!! My husband interrupted me at that point in the recipe and I got distracted. ( I much prefer being alone in the kitchen while baking or cooking! ) I will be out buying more butter & pecans tomorrow so I can try again. I promise to update my rating when I try again!
