If you're looking for cookies, I'm the woman to see

Very few people know this, but that title is in fact the original lyric from the AC/DC song Live Wire. In the end though, they decided that "If you're looking for trouble, I'm the man to see" was more in keeping with their image.

Anyway, I've spent the last two days making lots and lots of cookies for my family and loved ones. It may be bragging a little bit, but it's no lie to say that people on my cookie list lucked out this year.

First we have Chocolate Peanut Butter Pinwheels:

Then we have rich and delicious Dutch Cocoa Cookies:

Right behind them are my mom's Honey Cookies.

Note the slightly sinister Gingerbread Men and my Crips vs. Bloods Snowmen. Hey, I'm a good baker, but my decorating skills still need a little work.

And last but not least, the always popular Oatmeal Cranberry White Chocolate Chip.

On top of that, I also ended up making a lasagna (not pictured) at the last minute. It does not pay to throw a Christmas Day timing change at my mom without at least two weeks of build-up time. Should you ever have to change plans on her just 24 hours in advance, be prepared to find yourself making lasagna at 11:00 at night.

Now my feet hurt and I'm tired, so I think I will close with the time honored Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Good night! Hope your Christmas is full of love and fun and perhaps even a cookie or two.
