Yesterday I spent the afternoon baking goodies with my two friends from church. We had the idea to make a bunch of things and then split up the goodies so you end up taking home way more variety than you actually make. We had a lot of fun chatting, snacking, laughing at our mistakes and of course baking. One of the gals is a photographer, and I know she took some fun pictures of the food, but she hasn’t had time to post them yet, so I’ll post my pictures of the goodies as well as a picture I stole from the other gal. 🙂
Oh, and Tim volunteered to have the kids and husbands over to our house as we baked at a different house–it was great! No kids running underfoot and a little girl time too boot!
This is the picture the other gal took–it doesn’t have EVERYTHING we made showing, but I thought it was such a pretty picture I had to post it. 🙂
These are the treats we made:
1. Rocky Road Fudge
2. Pecan Rolo Pretzels
3. Dark Chocolate Peppermint Fudge
4. Candy Cane Cookies
5. Christmas Light bulbs
6. Ginger Cookies
7. Peanut Butter Cookies
8. Homemade Egg Nog
9. Oreo Truffles
Yes, that is a half eaten peanut butter cookie… I realized I only had one after I started eating it but I wanted it in the picture. hehe!
Homemade Eggnog–it was DELICIOUS and creamy (probably because of all the vanilla ice cream added… yummmmmmm….)
You posted this while I was responding to your other post. That is weird. I went back to see if I’d missed any posts BEFORE that one, and here was this one!
All I have to say is YUM, YUM!
And “Way to go, Tim, for having the kids and guys – what a husband you are!”
You ladies did a bang-up job. I’m trying the Oreo truffles with mint flavored Oreos and adding mint flavored chocolate chips to the dip. Plan to bring it for Christmas.
