Baking....

I have been up since early this morning baking. Made some delicious tea buns for breakfast, have two batches of bread rising and I am about to start some of our favourite molasses cookies. I have posted the recipe before - to see it click here. However, this time I plan on drizzling then with dark chocolate after they are baked, rather than decorating them with m&ms before baking.

The reason for this is that I am baking them using a fall fashion cookie cutters - it is just way too early for Christmas shapes - which is the majority of my cookie cutters. I might be hiding in my room, now and then, listening to Christmas music but there is no way I am producing Christmas tree and bell shaped cookies in OCTOBER!

If my back holds out and I am actually able to decorate the cookies with drizzles of chocolate I will post a few pictures. And - if time allows, I hope to post some pictures of the October birthday as well as a really sweet story relating to this birthday.
