I'm back! And I've brought cookies...




I want to thank everyone who sent well-wishes. Even with the magical healing powers of Sambucol, whatever Alex had was too strong for my immune system, and I needed a few days of doing nothing.

Unfortunately, once I did that, I had to shift to over-drive, as Christmas was fast approaching.

I decided to just take a break from blogging this week, to concentrate on getting better, and make all those cookies I'd promised myself I'd crank out this year. (don't worry, I practically scrubbed my hands raw, what with all the cleaning and santizing)

I promise to get the Blog Party round-up posted either late tonight, or early tomorrow.

In the meantime, here's some cookies for you...enjoy!



Mint Truffle Bars


Pistachio Fingers


Choco-Caramel Delights


Lemon Butter Cookies


Chocolate-Almond Biscotti


Chocolate-Covered Coffee Bean Cookies
