    Andee,
    LOL I always am in a cookie baking mood around christmas too! The kids and I have a blast with cookie cutters, and then we design them together, I have warm fuzzies can't wait a few more weeks. Usually for family friends we put together a collection of cookies to give away.

    My favorite ones are the peanut butter cups. You buy the little Reeses peanut butter cups, and make a batch of Peanut butter cookies. Now there are tiny cupcake holders that you can buy, don't buy the large ones, but the smaller ones, fill each with a tiny dop of PB cookie mix. Cook about 10 minutes, and when you take them out put a peanut butter cup inside. MMMMMM Quick and easy, and yummy in your tummy.

    What are your fav's? Perhaps I will try some this year.

    Andee,
    I too Love the 1932 version of Miracle on 32nd Street with Natalie Wood in it - Much better than the colorized 1972 version - the '72 version loses some of its "magic". I Love both the coutroom scene with the Letter carriers and the one where they fid the cane in the house - gives me goosebumps each and every time I see it
    I also LOVE the "Year without the Santa Clause".

    The night Before Christmas is my favorite poen at his time of the year too!

    So " to all a Good-nite!"

    I love a christmas story. My family watched it, even when we were in the dubs. The lamp gets me every time.

    Lydia!

    I love the Year Without A Santa Claus too! I love The Heat Meister!

    I'll sing a little tune from it:

    "He's Mr. Heat Meister
    "He's Mr. Sun
    "He's Mr. Warm Christmas
    "He's Mr. Hundred and One!

    Ashi,

    Here's the line from the movie regarding "The Lamp"

    "my brother and I were too busy staring at the soft glow of electric sex standing in the window"

    LOL..

    Mommy,

    My little boy ADORES Reese's Peanut Butter cups! I think I am going to try that recipe!

    I usually just bake the usual. Chocolate chip cookies, Iced sugar cookies. What I am famous for, is my Cinnamon Raisin bread. Of course, I am a purist, none of that bread baking machine shortcuts for me. All kneeding done by hand . I, too, have that complusion to thrust my baked goodies on unsuspecting family and friends this time of year

    I remember the first year my family went all out at Xmas. I was 19 and my sister was 15. We baked cookies all day long. My sister being a very skilled artist, decorated the iced sugar cookies. Santas faces, Xmas trees, etc. The thing was, she decorated them so beautifully, with great detail, that no one wanted to eat them!

    Well, I soon got over that!!!! LOL

    Yep,

    I love A Christmas Story! Great Holiday flick. Also amongst my favorites is A Christmas Carol (the George C. Scott version) and I'm one of those saps that could watch It's A Wonderful Life five times during the Christmas season.
