Allison baked many Christmas cookies last night and this morning. The whole apartment smells like gingerbread at the moment. She made three different kinds of cookies that required the use of a cookie press. Luckily we got one of those as a wedding gift. Allison learned all about different cookie dough and whatnot for her press. The cookies she made came from the Christmas Cookies website. She made Gingerbread Spritz, Angel Whispers and Snowflakes. I got to taste test each batch and they were very tasty. This morning as she finished the snowman shaped Gingerbread Spritz cookies I grabbed a shot of the results. All her cookie making last night and today was the first time with each recipe. I am fortunate to have a wife so skilled with cooking and baking.
We drove up to NH to spend the weekend with Dan and Marcia. And then it is back home to MA on Christmas morning.
Tonight we went down to Lowell to visit Allison’s friend Lindsay. Lindsay and her boyfriend have a nice condo in the northern part of Lowell, near Dracut. It is a quick trip down 93 to get there. They had a full house, kids, pets and people. I got alot of compliments on my D80 Nikon Camera and spent a lot of time talking to Lindsay’s dad about cameras. I even took a few pictures (imagine that)
This is Finnegan, he is beautiful and so well mannered
This is a photo from one of my Buzznet friends Azannie. AZ means Arizona and that is where Annie is. She has been the most consistent commenter and “buzz-rater” of my pictures on Buzznet. Annie usually has some fantastic photos and I found that this one of her Yorkshire Terrier Scooter. Scooter is a cutie and he just got a trim and then a holiday picture. So to put you in the Christmas Spirit I decided to post the image. You can help Annie out with her Buzznet Buzz by click in the image and clicking the buzz button. By increasing the buzz on images that helps people get their photos featured.
In case you didn’t know I post my images to Buzznet first. The post there has a link to the write up of the Photo-A-Day that I put on this blog that is hosted by Blogger. I also post the message to Myspace for my Myspace peeps. And if you want daily content for your site you can add my Photo-A-Day to your blog. I’m going to ask for more help getting the photos out there in the new year, but if you want to get a jump on things you can add my code to your site.
And I don’t want to leave my friend Stephen out. Stephen is looking handsome and festive in this photo.
