Every year after Thanksgiving, I go though past issues of Christmas cookie magazines, hand-written recipes, and a few cookbooks to gather up a list of what I will bake for my cookie tins. There are a combination of tried and true "must haves", and I always make a couple new recipes each year, but NEVER are they all in one spot. Before I started blogging, I was an avid scrapbooker. I even had a whole room devoted to it in our last house. I have more scrapbook supplies than many scrapbook stores I have visited. I went from scrapbooking our daily lives, to just doing trips to Italy, and I haven't even done an Italy scrapbook in a couple of years. I have made movies or dvds instead, and there is a pretty detailed version of our travels on this blog. But I do miss the physical cutting and pasting and decorating that goes with real tangible scrapbook pages. So, I deided to make a small "Cookie Recipe Book" for myself.
It's short and sweet, with all my recipes. I'll turn the pages for you...
Now all those holiday cookie recipes are in one place, and I can add to them when I find new ones next year!
