The Keebler Elves Have Nothin' On Us

This afternoon after church, my sisters and I did some serious damage to my parents basement.
We baked, we made a huge mess, we had fun!
We put one of our favorite movies on (Meet me in St. Louis).
We made a fire in the fireplace, and let our 10 children run wild and play as we made all sorts of treats to eat Christmas Eve while we open gifts.
Magic Cookie Bars, Oreo Balls, Decorated Sugar Cookies, Toffee, and Graham Cracker Caramel Squares were all on the menu. Yum!
Donna is still making a few cookies as I type and my mother is making 2 apple pies. Needless to say, we girls know how to eat!
The baking crew, minus my mother who was upstairs being Mrs. Santa and wrapping gifts. From left to right, Dawn(#3), Me and Margaux, Dolly (#4), Donna (#5) and Dayna(#1) holding 5 week old Wyatt.

Note to Readers: Remember we have been chasing children and slaving in a hot kitchen for hours. Hense in the above pic's, we look like white trash. Yours truly doesn't even match, in my Woot Tshirt and my pj bottoms!

It was such a fun time baking with you all. I'm so sick of sweets but I must say my favorite this year was still the MCB's and the homemade English Toffee. YUMMY!
