Perfect for our Movie/Soda Nights on Friday!
To quiet down for the night, we did the skit, "The Baker's Dozen". According to this legend, St. Nicholas visited a baker as an old woman asking him to give her an extra cookie to make a dozen. The baker, though honest, was not generous.
I left exactly 13 of the Mexican Wedding cookies I baked as our sample. At the end of the skit, we shared our own "baker's dozen".
It also occured to me that I have baked a dozen different things of the doughy variety. Let's see...
- Sandwich bread (white and wheat)
- French bread
- Italian loaf with cheese and herbs
- Brownies
- Cookies
- Pie
- Cheesecakes
- Pan de Sal/Dinner rolls
- Biscuits
- Cinnamon rolls
- Muffins
- Cakes/Cupcakes
- German pancakes
Isn't that wonderful?! I love knowing that! I feel like my own bakery. LOL
Hope you all had a great Wednesday!

You can send over the pan de sal and those brownies if you need somewhere to get rid of them. My husband hasn't had that since his Lola passed when he was teen. I don't bake. I make very good adobo, pancit and mechado, but I have tried baking cookies and they're never good, unless they're pre-packaged = )
Anything Disney is good for movie night with the family.

There is great wisdom in wanting to be the "ear" and not the "mouth" as you put it. I definitely could use that advice and so could a few others I know. Funny Horoscope. As for the baking, it is my favorite thing to do this time of year. The Scandinavians invented Smorgasbord and every Christmas there is a mandatory dessert one. I am glad you have great in-laws! That has got to be a huge blessing.
That is a lot of baking. But yum.
May, I'll trade you pan de sal for some mechado! LOL
I agree Anne, I agree!
Thanks, Sande and welcome!
