A whole herd of baking . . .

Only 5 more sleeps . . . 

The halls are decked, 
the pressies are under the tree,
 and the larder is stocked,
so yesterday I baked . . .


. . . a whole herd of ginger biscuit Reindeers,


 for The Hubby to take to work today.

 
Just your basic ginger biscuit recipe, with pretzels, chocolate chips and Smarties. 
Easy-peasy . . .


Of course I had to buy a whole lot of Smarties, just so I could pick out the red & green ones 
. . . and you know, 
once the box is open, 
one really should consume them quickly  ; - )

Hope you're having a happy day,
xoxo
