Lazy December Day

Kristine went to Mary G's house
last week
and they made Christmas cookies.
I like the biscotti
but the cookies I love are the pizzelle.

They are really a very thin waffle...

but I think of them as a crunchy cookie.

There are lots of YouTube videos

about how to make pizzelle.

I'm putting a pizzelle iron

on my Christmas list.

Photo of Morgan,

my sister's feet

and her little dog, Bella.

Didn't do much today.

I tried to take a few photos.

This shot of the chickens was the best.

Kathleen went home today.
Miss her but her family will be very glad to have her home.

Did laundry.
I sewed a bit on Kristine's quilt.
Made some chicken soup.
Ate some candy.
Ate some pizzelle.
Ate some soup.
Locked up the chickens.
1 egg!
Took a nap.
Woke up.
Now I'm posting.

Waiting to get a phone call
from Kathleen.
I want to know she arrived home safely.
