cookie packages in the making...



when the holidays roll around i get into "baking mode major" because i prefer to give people food as gifts, aint nothin' like lovin' from the oven! ok i will stop. but seriously i love giving my good friends and family things i have made and sharing some of my favorite recipes with them. this year to start things off i decided to make my great grandma's thumb-print cookies (recipe to come). this is only a sneak peak of the rest of the lovely treats to come! i can't wait to share it all!! but in the mean time, i have to taste test...



and this is my tree, finally done!!^_^ 


chai spiced snickerdoodles added today!! they were really yummy, and yes, i do taste tests along the way! i have to make sure everything comes out well!

here are more cookies i made for my cookie packages!!


seven layer bars..or as i like to call them sin bars.


frosted ginger cookies


russian tea cookies (aka melting moments)

Lisa, I think you need to tackle macarons! I'm obsessed with them, and they're nowhere to be found in Hawaii (well, the have at a few places, but they aren't too good). I've found a few recipes, but I'm not the best baker, so I'm nervous to try... If you ever make macarons, let me know your tips! :)
