A woman's place is in the kitchen

 I declared a family baking day. The kids worked on sugar cookies, with a little supervision.

Arguably, they could have stood to have a little more supervision.

Okay, maybe a lot more supervision.

But what's the fun in that?

They had their fun, and during their naps, I got to have mine. 

Final tally: twelve pounds of fudge, three dozen sugar cookies, two dozen chocolate espresso cookies, two dozen peanut butter chocolate kiss cookies, one dozen peppermint sugar cookie stars, and 22 trays of cinnamon rolls for the neighbors. 

This is definitely my favorite time of year.
