, about 723 pumpkin muffins (some mini, some regular, some with chocolate chips, some with peanut butter chips):
, and a batch of almond cookies (some with chocolate chips):
. All of the above were made with mixes from Tastefully Simple What? you thought I was a scratch baker? I've got one arm!Christmas Eve I finished gift bagging some gifts (again with the one arm- no wrapping of presents) then I went to my sister's for a little while. My Dad and stepmom came into town to stay with them. I visited for a little while then went home to meet up with CSP to head to his parents' house. We stopped at Jack in the Box on the way since every Christmas Eve his mom serves oyster stew and I hate oysters, plus eating soup with my left hand before a photo op was a dicey proposition. M&L were there (fabulous couple who are basically the cool aunt and uncle the universe forgot to give us). We had a big time and stayed way too late.
Christmas morning we went to my sister's to see what Santa brought my nephews. Man are they so cute and they were so, so excited about everything.
After a couple of hours we went home and I finished up cooking green bean casserole, crock pot mac & cheese, and corn casserole. Then we piled all the food up in the car and headed to my mom's. There was way too much food at her house.
We ate then settled in to watch a couple of movies. We got home late again then made sure to sleep in nice and late the next morning!

We don't exchange gifts (my husband and I) since we're on the adoption budget.
Sounds like a great day:) I'm making beer bread in a beer pan I found since Niel is almost done with trying a 100 different beers. I have to also find that beer cheese Cabot makes.
I'm glad you had a great holiday too! Your muffins and cookies look delish! :)
