Good weekend to be in the kitchen

I came back from my visit up to New England only to find it rainy and cold here in Georgia!
So Saturday was spent taking care of Dobby the kitten (we now can have our two cats and the kitten in the same room without a hissy-fit...that is progress!) I also got a start on my Christmas cookies with two batches of biscotti and the batter made up for the molasses cookies (stays over night in the fridge.)

Today I got the Christmas tree which we will put up tonight while eating lots of cookies and chili (not at the same time) and keeping a close eye on the animals as they adjust to a new "thing" in the house. We are taking bets on how long it will be before Dobby breaks and ornament...

Hopefully I will be able to get back to working on my Cotton Boll mystery quilt tomorrow when all calms down again...

what a darling baby! I got my tree up...and am working on the Cotton Boll quilt too. Did you see step 5?? Lots and lots and lots of 1/2 square triangles!

Dobby is adorable, and what a fabulous name. I am so far behind on the RRCB! The Third step is killing me. I moved ahead to step four but still haven't finished step three and now there is step five? Oh well.... we'll just plug along!
Cheers,
Dionne

Sorry you missed the snow here in New England by only a few days. Looks like we might have a white one after all.
