Do me a favor and click on the link below. I'm trying to harvest a decent number of hits to the story strictly so I feel good about myself, OK? ;)

I mixed some "Santa's Cookies" earlier from a Disney Recipes cookbook that one of my buddies in the newsroom gave to me. I think they're going to be good. It's regular refrigerator dough with crushed peppermint candies mixed in. After baking, you dip half the cookie into chocolate (mmmmmmm!) and sprinkle w/more crushed peppermint candy. Much fun was had trying to crush the candy with a meat tenderizer without waking David.

Then I mixed and baked some Chewy Chocolate Peanut Butter Chip cookies (I did a batch of that when I started CookieCam this year -- but they disappeared mysteriously). I quit that because I had to run to Target to grab something for tomorrow before I forgot.

Long story short, I'm back, and going to continue w/the CCPBC cookies first. Got it? Good. Click on the "CookieCam" link on the left side to launch the cams.

And yes, I am wearing a skirt today in honor of my article being published. Wanted to look presentable for the new guests. I usually wear jeans.
