I've been helping plan our Thanksgiving menu for this year. We're having brisket, gravy, mashed potatoes, green beans with bacon, cranberry jello salad, and sourdough bread. Tomorrow I'll fry the bacon for the green beans, start the brisket, and bake the pies with my sisters. Currently planning to make eggnog pumpkin pie, butterscotch pecan pie, and probably a berry pie.
I started making Christmas cookies to send to the grandparents. My sister made peppernuts and I made Danish butter cookies. I hadn't made Danish butter cookies before, so I wanted to try them. They were pretty good, but I think I prefer spritz cookies.
Also I broke one of my last decorating bags attempting to pipe the cookies
, so I think I'll go back to my recipes that use the cookie press.
Christ is King.
