- 'Twas the night before Christmas... -

...well, make that two nights before Christmas; but when Momma's scheduled to work Christmas Day, the calendar gets altered a bit. All through the house on December 23 -- AKA "Christmas Eve 2018" -- a lot of creatures were stirring...

...some break-and-bake "cookie batter," that is.  Ohhh Toll House, you're a busy mom's dream come true.

The stockings were hung off the railing with care, and Harper and Co. are officially ready for the gift-bearing visitor! She insisted that Santa liked orange juice the best, so a full glass of O.J. it was...

...turns out he didn't complain! ;) :)

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!

PS -- I love these pictures shared with me of some of the cookie plates we made! I hope Santa enjoyed all the delicious treats!!!
