Christmas

It's been a while since posting here.  I've been busy with life and really haven't made many cakes.  I spent Christmas Eve baking up a batch of goodies and spent time with my granddaughter making a gingerbread house (her own special one).  I taught her the correct method for holding a decorator bag....

 

Not bad, eh?  She'll soon become my assistant.
We had a grand day of baking.

 
Here are the results!


Lots of yummies for our tummies.


 
And a last minute Christmas Cake.  


The original idea was to have presents around the tree and some poinsettias in place of a few bows, but time was NOT on my side.  It was delicious and the family loved it...that is all that matters to me!
