St. Germaine in hot cocoa! It's my new favorite thing.

I'm going to make gingerbread bats (and maybe rose marshmallows) tomorrow. If I don't wake up feeling dire, that is, because I suspect I'm fighting off a cold.

Burrell, absolutely! All cookies are welcome. I think we've gone a bit overboard. Also the gingersnaps, while tasty are a bit wonky because Grace mixed them. She didn't incorporate the soda well.

You are a baking fool. I get it, I've spent the last few weeks baking, but only one or two cookies, all about tweaking the recipe. But I lack twins.

And if you get tired of Baileys, try amaretto.

Joshua and Clarice is EVERYTHING.

SO TRUE

I squeed SO HARD when they got together.

And if you get tired of Baileys, try amaretto.

There are some flavored Kahluas (like cinnamon) that are also pretty good in hot chocolate.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

hot chocolate laced with Bailey's

That sounds lovely. But I have neither of those items so I'll have to be satisfied with my vanilla porter. I want to get up and get another scone but I am becatted.

To go with the WWII stories, I have many of my grandfather's photos on Flickr. Many have "somewhere in France" or "somewhere in Holland" written on the back. [link]

All cookies are welcome.

That's usually my attitude towards cookies.

I am so dang tired.

butterscotch done (so easy. I should make this all of the time). Caramels done (fussier for sure).

Hot chocolate is also very good with rumchata! Or whipped cream vodka. Or Kahlua.
