Last of the Baking ...

December 13, 2016

 

The cookies were rolled out and cut out with the gingerbread cookie cutter ...

then baked and left to cool ...

It was nice to see the elk by the fence again ...

The cookies were going to be iced ... and finished today ...

as they needed to be packed and sent to Daigen ...

The last batch of cookies to be made were the spritz cookies ...

This batch was going to be shortbread cookies ... with sprinkles for decoration ...

These are another favorite of mine ...

Shortbread made with cream cheese ... orange rind and a pinch of cinnamon...

pressed out as a flower and a little piece of candied cherry added to the Centre ...

These cookies melt in your mouth ...

mmmmmmmm

Daigen's box of Gluten Free Gingerbread men were packed ...

Ian ... Kendall and Nixon ... were getting an assortment of my Christmas cookies ...

The card that Ella created and the small packages of Smarties (the boys love Smarties ... they cannot get them in the USA) ...

were packaged up ...

All of these items and more were put into a large box to be sent to Texas ...

for Christmas ...
