I have a list of holiday goodies I can't wait to bake (and more importantly consume), but I'm trying to hold off...but why? I have a little boy (like yours!) who doesn't have any sense of time and would LOVE it if I handed him a set of Christmas cookie cutters and a rolling pin. So, why not?! In small, sweet doses, it's just as fun, if not more so.

Ha, ha. I did see a cute calendar with windows for each day with pictures behind them, and I think I'll pick that up tomorrow, but presents? Yeah, I think I'll be ordering everyone a pair of SmartWool socks and trying to make a batch or two of fudge.<BR/><BR/>I counter your MOO with a gobblegobblegobble! ;)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14562016488243405664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31485000.post-57976494876473444432008-11-17T19:44:00.000-06:002008-11-17T19:44:00.000-06:00MOOMOOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31485000.post-61629059866239213342008-11-17T19:12:00.000-06:002008-11-17T19:12:00.000-06:00I KNOW!!!

I was in the car flipping the stations, landed on that one and gasped, "Are you freaking KIDDING me???"<BR/>I think maybe I'm more of a Scrooge than most, because there is a limit to how much "holiday cheer" I can handle. <BR/> I worked in retail years and years ago and I remember the Christmas music starting the day after Thanksgiving and not a moment sooner. Are all the retailers THAT desperate to get us to go out and BUY, BUY, BUY??<BR/> Stupid question;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31485000.post-76590824419743295892008-11-17T18:24:00.000-06:002008-11-17T18:24:00.000-06:00Mmm... pumpkin bread...I know that retailers are t...Mmm... pumpkin bread...<BR/><BR/>I know that retailers are trying to lure people out early, as they panic.

After that the season was fair game. I have noticed, over the past few years, that my folks break the Christmas music out earlier and earlier. It wouldn't surprise me if Dad has already moved all the cds up from the basement and banished any non-seasonal music from the multi-disc players...<BR/><BR/>As for me? Well, I did find myself humming a Christmas tune this morning. And I have been considering making the dough for Christmas cookies. Just so I have it ready when the season officially starts...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
