I started the day by baking the English Toffee Squares. A few family members like nuts on them and the rest prefer them without. I am in the without group. Look! I took the picture before I started eating them.
Late in the afternoon I baked the shortbread cookies, a favorite with the grandchildren.
Now it is time to start making the Chex Mix.
Four corners are done but I have about 30" more to hand stitch. I had 3 sessions of hand stitching between baking and vacuuming.
They are predicting light snow twice this week but no white Christmas.

That toffee ... ! I'm in the nuts family.
Your goodies look wonderful. I would just sit at your table and sample!
I am buying a new fancy candy thermometer for my husband for Christmas. The first thing we will make is fudge, then I want to make him some toffee. The one I made last year was delicious, but I spread it too thin, and it was just slightly chewy, so I need to tweak my recipe.
Your candy looks super--you've been so busy baking...me, not so much!! I hope to make my fudge this weekend...today will be picking up last minute items..
31 this morning here and sunny...hugs, Julierose...
Xmas season takes away from sewing time but it makes a nice break to do something different
Toffee squares were among the treats at the holiday gathering I attended yesterday. (So was Chex Mix.) I indulged.
