Christmas Traditions

Those who really know me well, know that baking Christmas cookies is a tradition with my family. Although over time the place and the methods have varied. I usually get together with family members and bake 8 - 10 types of cookies. My sisters, niece, nephew, mom and others baked cookies in the states and sent me some. However, this year I baked 4 types of our traditional cookies, and gave them to my friends at PIBC as a treat. Although Stella, our assistant librarian, helped with the cutouts (pictured here - taken by Stella) and the mixed the Sandtarts. I also baked Cherry Drop and Chocolate Chip cookies. The students often ask me to get them when I bake so they can learn but often I can't find them at the right times. Maybe next year I will have more of them involved. Any way... those who ate the cookies seemed to enjoy them.
