One of my favorite things about the holiday season is the food that goes along with it. When else during the year is eating delicious treat after delicious treat so widely approved of and encouraged? Earlier this week I made some frosted sugar cookies to send to a friend as part of his Christmas gift and luckily the recipe allowed for more than enough cookies so that we could have some leftover. They're not the prettiest cookies, but they sure do taste good. Some festive cookies and a glass of milk leave me fa-la-la-ing (and feeling quite full).
(I also painted my nails today to get into the spirit)
Another one of my favorite holiday traditions is trimming the tree. We got our tree on Sunday, but it didn't go up until last night because of some tree stand problems. Nevertheless, we still got our act together and spent the evening listening to Christmas albums and hanging ornaments. Some ornaments we've had forever and putting them on the tree each year just brings a rush of warm and fuzzy feelings. And afterward, the glow of the lit tree makes the living room feel just that much more cozy.
