I can imagine how the almond crescents melt in your mouth and how the vanilla clusters must be addicting. It is such a great time to quickly package some sugar cookies or peppernuts to take to the salon, hairdresser or neighbor. I also am baking less than I used to, but I like to have each of the kids' favorites around.

Next, are a couple types of cookies and then the Christmas Stolen. I do love to bake, but don't do near the amount I once did. Enjoy these lovely holiday days!

Some of my favorite Christmas memories are those spent in the kitchen with my mother and sisters baking cookies, fruit cake and other goodies to share with friends and family...happy memories! Your vanilla clusters and spiced nut recipes look so delicious, thanks for sharing the recipe. I'm always looking for new recipe to add to my list of treats to make during the holidays. <br /><br />Have a wonderful, restful, peaceful week-end!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Barb<br />ChBarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158897469583069249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-83998728201823021682021-12-17T00:06:34.982-08:002021-12-17T00:06:34.982-08:00All your cooking looks delicious.

I started my Christmas baking yesterday with my husband's all time favorite molasses stack cake--nine thin layers with cooked dried apples between layers. This is an old, old traditional family cake recipe that I have made him for Christmas most every year of our 65 years together. Your "sights and sounds in the kitchen" sound so familiar to what I remember of days gone by when I had children around. Thanks for the memories!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13842504904816954344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-26723877964373238812021-12-16T12:59:09.138-08:002021-12-16T12:59:09.138-08:00Beautiful photos...

We are not having the annual Christmas Eve party so not so much to do. I purchased an English Christmas Pudding and cookies from World Market - fortunately they made their way westward across the pond after a lengthy wait. Just wish I could travel across in the other direction - fingers still crossed we'll make it next spring!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-18590335508001276062021-12-16T05:54:47.818-08:002021-12-16T05:54:47.818-08:00I don't do much baking anymore.

I admire your energy to bake after teaching and school events. We simply can't put tradition aside as if it's a burden. I loved your list of all the bustle in your kitchens of the past!<br /><br />I only have a bit of baking for friends and family, and some gift wrapping, but the biggest joy right now is my daughter gave birth to a baby girl last night! You are the first blogger to know! All bets were on with the gender but I just knew. Colette arrived at 12:50 a.m. at 6 lbs., 2 oz. I was in touch with Abigail throughout the night. Due to Covid restrictions, they can have no visitors. Pictures--you really couldn't ask for the most beautiful baby!!! I will share pics once they do. I'm on cloud 9! Maybe I will never get to the baking!!😊<br /><br />Jane xBlondie's Journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988377413260331618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-58738317255111002812021-12-15T21:18:56.931-08:002021-12-15T21:18:56.931-08:00When the family is together an assortment of bakin...When the family is together an assortment of baking adds to the enjoyment of conversation and laughter.

My husband makes fruitcake (a recipe he brought with him from the UK) and there is nothing like the aroma when it is baking. My son and I have a tradition to make gingerbread men together; we will be baking on Friday and I can't wait. Every few years, we make a variety of cookies and give a selection to the neighbors. This is not one of those years - maybe 2022? I have been thinking about making divinity, one of my Mom's Christmas staples.
