3am

Yup. That's when I went to bed last night. I was baking from 6pm when I got home until 3am. And I'm still not done.

I decided that this year, if I don't get at minimum a card from those who are getting cookie baskets from me (I don't even want a gift, just a card) they're off the list for next year.

**Stinky!**

Damn. You've really gone full speed ahead w/ this baking venture, haven't you?

I'm impressed.  I spent a few hours one night making spiced nuts for DH's co-workers and needed a fainting couch when I was done. 

I wish I had the backing drive that some of you have.  Oh wait, no I don't.  I would just end up eating half of what I baked and wouldn't be able to fit out the door to make it to the post office to mail my packages, so then I would just stay home, eat the other half and wait for the flat bed truck and the wrecking ball required to transport me to the hospital.

I've done the baskets for years. This year I expanded the types of cookies I'm doing. I nixed the cake pops that I was going to do because it was just too much.

 I have to do my linzer tarts tonight, another batch of Rum candy-no-bake-cookies, finish cake balls for the holiday party tomorrow, make the mexican wedding cookies and decorate the 8 gazillion sugar cookies that are now littering my living room in various containers.

you're my hero. i wish i had that kind of dedication! right now, i can handle work and not much else. i am glad to have days off during the holidays when i need to bake, and even that is cutting into my time.

I'm thinking they need to send you more than a thank you.

I'm thinking they need to send you more than a thank you. 

The thank you is enough for me. I don't do this to get presents in return. But a nice holiday card would be appreciated.
