More celebrating....

The week-end is here!  Some of you may be having your Christmas gatherings today rather than earlier in the week.  I hope you have been able to spend some time with those people whom you love the most.

As I mentioned in last Monday's post, not only did we celebrate Christmas this week, we also celebrated birthdays!  Munchomom, Machoman, and the Munchkins arrived on Sunday, as did City Girl.  We enjoyed cookies the day before the birthday!

Christmas trees!

More cookies!

The next day it was time to think about birthdays!

Birthday cake!

Whipped cream is the filling!

 This was a new recipe that Munchomom had sent along for her birthday cake.  We served it on Monday night, and it was delicious! 

I seem to be missing a picture of Country Girl's cake.:-(  She had requested an Orange Pound Cake with walnuts!  It was very good, too!

It has been a week of great times here!  More details will come in a future post!

Thank you for reading.  I really appreciate your comments.

  1. Well, I can certainly vouch for the fine quality of those cookies and that chocolate cake! Everything I sampled was yummy! I also enjoyed Country Girl's cake, and will be happy to see your picture of it when you post it. Being your sister has many advantages, and my hubby and I enjoyed our time with you all on Monday evening! Have a wonderful Saturday, Sister! :-)

  4. Wow, more cookies. They look so pretty. I baked one batch of cookies for Christmas and they went fast. I must say, I ate my share.

    Happy New Year.
