 Christmas - Cookies - Turkey.
Well, since I didn’t make a turkey for Thanksgiving but I had bought one at the store (with my Pick ‘n Save Turkey Perks reward no less!), I wanted to make the bird before I needed the space in the freezer for Christmas. Four days ago, I embarked on a path to making the

 Christmas - Cookies.
Well, we're nearing the end of the line for Christmas. I might get all but one of the cookies on my list done. I don't think that I'll have the time or patience for the linzer cookies. I'm so sad because I've always wanted to make them. Oh well, that's why I pick so

 Christmas - Cookies - Holidays.
This cookie always reminds me of my grandmother (Grammie). At Christmas time, she'd make these cookies (though she called them crescent cookies) for our Christmas Eve.

 Christmas - Cookies - Holidays.
This recipe technically isn't a cookie. I like to mix up types of cookies…drop, rolled, sugar, nut, fruit, etc. Another thing I think makes a good cookie plate is having a candy or two. What better than a homemade peppermint patty. I've made other candies but never the peppermint patty. I have to say,

 Christmas - Cookies - Holidays.
This cookie is more of an everyday cookie. I like to have a few of these out there to sort of balance out the super sweet, traditional Christmas cookie. This recipe is a bit more wholesome than just a plain sugar cookie. With coconut, walnuts, and oatmeal, it's sure to do some good. A
