Anyone start getting ready yet? Share what you make for food or gifts--I am making aprons for my granddaughters and yester day I found a set of pans and a set of bakeware that are their size and it can be used on the real stove! I want to make miniture oven gloves for them gotta figure out how--all I have to get now is a book for each. We give gifts to the kids(simple things) the adults get their favorite food such as Buckeyes!! Yummy------I always try to be done by the first of Dec--cause I bake for other people--

Christmas is coming????? Gets that "Deer in the headlights" look.

I'm having enough trouble with the events coming up in the next couple of weeks to pay attention to something in a couple of months...

The only thing I've done is try out some new cookie recipes.

I've thought some about gifts. I'm going to order the new Booth Brothers DVD for my mother.

Some stores were putting up Christmas stuff in July!

As for my plans for Christmas, they include helping my Mom make 12 or more kinds of Christmas cookies, several kinds of homemade candy, including fudge, and possibly making some crocheted plastic soda pop holders for gifts.

I just started a Christmas cookies and other Holiday Recipes thread. Maybe we'll get some good recipe ideas there.

Careful Keith, there are people on this forum who would question your Christianity for that post. Santa, Frosty, Rudolph, et al are considered to be evil influences by some of the folks here.

I prefer a nice Mickey Mouse theme myself.

I had an all teddy bear tree once - got the miniature ones at thrift stores and garage sales for 25 or 50 cents each.

Sometimes I do a "cookie" tree. Gingerbread men ornaments, antique cooking utensils (some red-handled, some green-handled), antique cookie cutters, I think I even tuck in a vintage cookbook and folded tablecloth, rolling pin, vintage spice tins....anything that looks like it could be included in the baking theme. It has been my favorite themed tree.

I haven't actually done anything per se, but I have decided what the grown kids are getting, and kicking around ideas for what the grandkids will get.

Even though we don't celebrate Christmas, we remain willing to have any of you mail us cookies.

Just sayin'

If I sent you cookies you would not be able to eat them. I do not bake cookies that are soft enough that anyone can eat them.

I used to send homemade candy and goodies to my family who lives 2400 miles away--but they never said Thank you or even acknowledged they got it--my nephew always sent a Thank You--so now I sed a few things to him--and some peanut brittle to my mom--that all I send--unless I send Harvie Cookies? What are your favorites?? I know Rons are oatmeal raisin---
