If you are anything like me, December gets to be a very busy and overwhelming month. I try to keep things as stress free as possible by planning ahead. This year has been hard because of being sick and all, but I can still do some things ahead of time so I don't have to stress about them later.
One thing I like to do is to make and freeze cookie dough. This way when you need to bring treats to something, or have a last minute need to fill, you can just take the dough out of the freezer, bake it up, and voila! Fresh cookies with less mess because you made the mess and cleaned it up ahead of time.
What are you doing to get ready for the Holidays?

Aaaaah! Nothing. And everywhere I go, I'm reminded that the holidays are coming whether I'm ready or not. Freezing cookie dough is a great idea!
Let's see...I've done 1/4 of my Christmas shopping, bought cards (but haven't opened the boxes yet), glanced at my recipe books, bought Christmas tins to give baking to the neighbours in, bought our first tree (fake), and confirmed with Neil that I can start decorating and playing Christmas music (when he's home) on the 1st. Yay!
I'm knitting my way to arthritis, every year I say this will be the year of the homemade (yet unbelievably cute) Christmas.
