Well, I made one cookie, and the peanut butter squares (no oven required). And hopefully when I finish this blog post I will mix up the dough for ginger bread cookies and then I can bake them tomorrow evening, since the dough requires several hours of refrigeration before it can be rolled.
These are the cookies I made today, the Chocolate Muzzetts. Though this is last years photo, they look the same, haha. (Click through to flickr for the recipe!)
Above photos are not my own; please click for source!
I also did a super fast and simple DIY -- Mustache Gloves! I just cut the stashes out of felt and glued them on to your average pair of $2 Magic Gloves; but the results are all fun and games.
I'm now one week into the No Repeats Challenge; it hasn't been to tough thus far, but it's only been one week! Well, I might even go so far as to say two weeks because I know what I'm wearing through Saturday and weather or not I'll even be getting dressed on Sunday remains to be seen. (The day after Christmas is typically a pajama/movies/leftovers day.)
I can see it being hard to not repeat these pieces for the next few weeks -- skinny jeans, basic grey top, bright blazer and leopard scarf; all very easily remixed.
The petite handlebar is the classic.

ReplyDeleten that Mustache Gloves, BRILLIANT IDEA! ahhahahaha
hahaha those gloves are an amazing idea and boy did you get me hungry with all that baking, I have a sweet tooth you know, in fact my friend who retired two years ago still comes by every christmas with little sweets for me, among them my fave, gingerbread cookies! I love those little suckers! By the way you look very pretty and so chic in your outfit.
ReplyDeleteThe mustache gloves are too cute! I just love them. Whimsical, and creative are you, indeed!
ReplyDeleteYou've got me wishing I had actually baked something this year. Usually, I'm the baker in the family and make nearly 10 different kinds of Christmas cookies. This year? One lonely batch during a cookiefest with friends. I already ate them. My family is going to be so mad when I come home empty handed on Christmas Eve!
And... I'm glad to see my camera cookies made the cut! (I made them for a Christmas potluck for my camera club. Last year, obviously. Since I'm such a slacker this year! ha)
ahhh! LOVE those gloves! so much fun - fashion needs a sense of humour sometimes!
