My friend Clarissa just started a food and craft blog called
Spinster Homemaker, and I'm seriously impressed. She's such a great, funny writer so it's entertaining, but I'm really inspired by her baking skills. So much so that I've decided to really go for it this Thanksgiving and cook and bake up a storm.
I just finished preparing a pumpkin cheesecake, so details and pics on that to come!
On top of the baking featured on her blog, every year Clarissa mails me a package of her delectable Christmas cookies. I can never get enough of them!
She just did a post on Christmas cookie packaging, and now I and determined that this year, I will also do fancy Christmas cookies! Quite appropriate for my first holiday season as a Mrs.
She even recommends a great Christmas cookie book called
Rose's Christmas Cookies, which I will be buying shortly to help guide me!
Not only will I make them, but I want to get all crafty and have them look like this above!
