This was sweet. I always find Christmas an incredibly nostalgic time for me. And every year, almost without fail, I'd decorate cookies with my nephews. OOOooh the Christmas music (you ever start singing Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire in the middle of friggin' July, by chance? Hahahaha...

That's a special time when you can make cookies with your kids and sing songs. Loved that when they were home. Brings back memories of happy times in the kitchen. God Bless, JB

It's all in the icing, Andrea....the song sits in the very back back seat. Curious to see how this clever contest is judged bc I have read some exceptionally grand pieces....like THIS! Jack Horne wrote one that had me in stitches last night too..something about airplanes and model glue..... Have a great day shaping the minds of our future. Love, Gwendolen
