Bake-a-Palooza

I love Thanksgiving. I love the cozy days home with the family, basking in the warmth of a fire while the lake effect snow falls outside. This is Western New York, after all, and we nearly always have snow on Thanksgiving.

Most of all, I love the baking. I love the delicious smells coming from the kitchen, and the goodies stocked all over the house.

Oreo turkey cookies

Aunt Leta's marvelous sugar cookies

Now, really, is my cooking that bad? I promise I won't set the house on fire today, little guy!
