Christmas cookies

So we've been bad bloggers of late. Formerly weekly, now weakly.... well, there's just too much in the way of holiday prep, and commitment avoidance filling up our days. I"m sure you know the feeling.

I've also spend a great deal of time bouncing between the workshop and the kitchen.

and based on the following recipe my grandfather passed along (he thinks this would pair well with my Christmas Punch recipe), you can see I'm probably spending a little too much time in the kitchen!
