No more am I gonna make 13 different kinds of cookies and candy. No, no and NO! I am limiting myself to only 2 kinds of cookies and 1 candy. Unless of course I make those Thumbprint cookies...hmmm.... Enjoy the Gingerbread. :) (I'm a chocolate kind of person myself.) I went on a baking strike this year.

Anarki: Please see above. Not dwarf bread. No combat crumpets or anything of that kind. I sent it last Wednesday, the 13th, <B>you</B> should be able to remember that date. ;) Outer Mongolia? Hm, that sounds even worse than what the Kid would/could offer, lol. Well, in the letter I included I told him to share. I bet the gingerbread sucks big time compared to mine though.... :P Well, potash is also known as potassium carbonate. <a HREF="http://justfuckinggoogleit.com/" rel="nofollow">This link</A> might explain things even better. Thank you, thank you, still a bit early though. ;) Lynnette: I was kind of whipped into baking 'em, but I'm gonna bake a few more. We haven't been doing this for way too long! BT: Thank you! :)

Especially if what you started with turns out good. :) I have always thought my Chocolate Crinkles were missing something. Well this year I added chocolate chips and that was just the right touch. I don't know why I didn't think of that before. :) Now you can move on to Gingerbread Houses. No, no, I'm not going to say anything about roof tiles! Like you know who above. lol!

I've eaten some of the combat crumpets, er... gingerbread she's generously brought around on Christmas Day and they were great. I did suffer no ill effects whatsoever.
