I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! I thought I’d share a few photos from the weekend…
My mom and I have a Christmas tradition of baking cookies together. We’ve done it every year for over twenty years. This Christmas, we made peanut butter cookies and lemon bars. Delicious!
And surely nothing says Christmas like a happy cat by a fire. This is Lucky’s favorite spot in the winter. She’ll lay there happily for hours when there’s a fire–and lay there pointedly, when there isn’t!

Mmm, I love lemon bars. What’s your recipe, if you don’t mind sharing?
I wouldn’t mind sharing…but the recipe was in a Betty Crocker cookbook that I don’t have with me. It wasn’t anything particularly unique, I don’t think, and not a secret family recipe. 🙂 It’s probably very close to anything you’d find using Google!
Beautiful cookies and happy cat — that’s a cozy Christmas!
Lucky’s got the best spot!
Bear With Me….cozy♫ Be safe in the New Year♥
A lovely (tasty) tradition!
Yummy looking cookies! And that cat does look cozy. 🙂
Why wouldn’t there be a fire? 🙂 Leave it to the cat to find the best seat in the house.

Aww Lucky is so pretty! I am sure my cats would love a fireplace as well. They are such snugglers. Have a great new year!
That’s a great photo of your home-made cookies. Re the fire: I think your cat just knows what she likes & expects her human to give it to her! 😉
Ok, cookies and kitties…You can’t get better than that!! Great photos! Happy New Year!
Your cat looks mighty content in front of the blaze. Peanut cookies and lemon bars are two of my faves. Have a happy and healthy 2013!
Love the fireplace! It looks cozy!
Very nice photos. So nice you make cookies together. Love the cat picture.
THANKS.
