We have been preparing the house for the big work Holiday Party that we are hosting this coming Friday at Pi Milton.
And then I got to baking. We are going to be giving holiday cookies to everyone as they leave the party and we have a few neighbors who really like the gingerbread with maple frosting. (Pictured are shortbread trees with red rum and green vanilla frosting. Then there are gingerbread trees with maple cinnamon frosting. And there are also chocolate espresso logs. And then ISSB’s cookie of the month: triple chocolate – he went out with a bang.)
I even used my new Clay Coyote Saucepan as double boiler for the chocolate topping.
These are more like biscotti:
And I finally finished re-stitching all the stockings for Christmas in 
What do you think of my nephew's train?
And, then to top off a day in the kitchen, I used my Clay Coyote Chicken Baker to make ISSB and me a very tasty dinner. (In case you are wondering we used Firemans #4.)
Overall, a very productive weekend.

Your cookies look very impressive sitting out on the counter. Maybe we will have to bake a few more when you get here on the 16th!
And I like the train.
