Christmas is Coming

 

PICT0170

Today  I got my pinecone garland up with a string of lights on top and it looks rather home made, but  I like the look of something that isn’t store bought.   In the country one can get away very easily with nice projects.

I also got the inside of my house decorated, (out with the fall colors and in with the Christmas hues). I also put our Christmas tree up and added one outside just in front of our picture window.  Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! 

I baked more persimmon cookies today and I love the aroma of cloves and cinnamon.  When persimmons get ripe, one must use them in baking or just eating.  Some people like to let them get mushy ripe, then freeze them.  They eat them like frozen sherbet with a spoon.  I prefer my cookie recipe .   Tomorrow I will give you  my Persimmon Cookie Recipe.  On a cold wintery day it smells very good to come in from the cold and have the cookies baking.

So go get your house decorated and get ready to bake!
