I am a baking lunatic. I can't stop. I need an intervention.
I have triple batches of:
pina colada cookies
margarita cookies
chocolate chip cookies
spice cookies
peanut butter cookies
snickerdoodle cookies
orange sugar cookies
maple sugar cookies
chocolate crinkles
double fudge with white chip cookies
and oatmeal butterscotch cookies

I'm sure I will still make fudge and ranger cookies.

Today my 2 GD's came to frost the sugar cookies I make for them, special shapes they always request. They are in 10th grade and 2nd year in college. Gave them fudge and memory CC cookies I always made for their Dad. Also made fresh caramel corn for oldest and baked peanut butter Kiss cookies in mini muffin pans with foil liners. I was told cookie frosting days must go on forever, it has become a tradition for them.
Everything is out the door and am so pleased about that, just me now and I don't eat those things anymore.

Our family is down to just Hubs, me, dog and foster cat. The grands go to my daughter's inlaws house for every holiday as they feel (the inlaws) are the only ones who should see the kids for the holidays (WHAT??) One day the granddaughters will grow up and ask why they cannot go to our house for holidays. We tell them there is no sense in fighting over it as I/we can go see them any time we feel like it (don't need a holiday!). Which is what my granddaughters LOVE about us and so look forward to our visits !

The other daughter lives 4 hours away and also visits the inlaws (very begrudingly !)..

So small batches of goodies ! Probably a small Christmas dinner as well !
