My entry to 
Theme: SWEETS AND GIFTS
Christmas was pretty low key in my house this year. Usually Hubby and I spent a few days with my sister and her family. With covid on the rise and my hubby’s hip surgery we didn’t travel the 300 mi.(appr. 500 km) distance to her home but a Zoom call came in handy for Christmas well wishes.
I did make sweets, my gingermen cookies with jelly in the belly and a banana bread.
With the dough I also made other Christmas treat cutouts of candy canes, stars and trees.
This may seem like a lot of cookies but they freeze well and taste just like freshly baked when taken from the freezer.
As for the festive banana bread, with red and green cherries, there wasn’t much left by the time I thought to take a photo.
Gift from a friend.🎁 These seem appropriate from someone who knows I like cats and feed lots of birds. 😸
Gift of a bottle of Baileys to spike up Christmas morning coffee in the new cat cup.
And lastly a cashew gift for the birds and squirrel over Christmas.
Wishing everyone much health and happiness. I feel blessed to be welcoming in the year 2022.
