Christmas Candy

All the wimin' in my family gather to make Christmasy candy for the holidays. This year, not much was going on with the rest of the gang so that whole fam-dam-ily was there. I was more in a play mood rather than a cook mood, hence why there are pictures of us and no pictures of chocolate powder sugar cookies, or the english toffee, or the almond bark, or the fudge.
The place was an absolute mess in the first twenty minutes and not just because we had ten people cooking at the same time. These little rascals started an all out Powdered Sugar war:

And me, Bronsynn and Xannie - Bronsynn eyes could only look weirder if they were glowing red:

The rest of the night, amidst all the baking, we shook our little booties to some Footloose - it's my mom's new favorite thing to do when we are all together and I must say that besides the super fun time, it burns a helluva lotta calories!

  1. You guys always have so much fun. Next time record the Footloose action; gotta be entertaining.

  2. Ha! We did actually - it just ended up going forever and is going to take a thousand years to upload. Maybe I will try to one of these days on Facebook
