Any bakers out there?

Anybody really into baking?

Just asking because today is my holiday baking day. I've made 13 fruitcakes so far, and there are 4 more in the oven. 8 more to bake. I started cutting up the ingredients last night & chopping the nuts. Premixed the dry ingredients so this morning I could get up and get going.

Also mixed up a batch of Springerles (German cookies). The dough has to chill then is rolled and cut & set out for the surface of the dough to dry for 12 hours before baking. Will bake them tomorrow after church services.

My husband made a batch of fudge for a widow from church & a big pot of chicken soup for us. His chicken soup is the best!! Our daughter made a pot of vegetable soup.

Good thing we have a big kitchen. It's been a wonderful day so far. I'm getting a little tired of fruit cakes though .

Daughter just left for a concert in Corpus Christi. She went shopping with a friend last night in Houston and to a concert there. Where we live, Houston, Corpus Christi, San Antonio and Austin are not too far away, the the young people have entertainment options even though there is not much happening right here. Corpus and Houston are not bad drives at all because it's 4 lane divided highway the entire way.

Next weekend will probably make the decorated sugar cookies. Those are my husband's favorite.

Oh, and I'm baking a New York Style cheese cake Monday night for our church holiday party which is Tuesday evening.

Love this time of year. It's cool outside and nice time to be in the kitchen.
