More Baking and my Christmas Trees

Well, I made the shortbread dough last night but I didn't bake them until this morning.

Then this afternoon I made the Voluptuous Coconut Macaroons.  I hadn't made them for a couple of years and forgot that the baking time in the original recipe was off.  It said 20 minutes but after almost burning the first batch I found that they are done after 10 minutes.

Last night I finished decorating my main tree in the Living Room

and today I finished decorating my Nutcracker Tree and got my Shepherd's Bush 2000 Years Ago tree in position and all lighted up.

I have most of my decorating done now - just few bits and pieces to put into place.  And once I  have made my Butter Tart Squares all the baking will be  done. Yippee!!!

After I finished posting here, I will go back to stitching on another one of my 2011 Crazy January Challenge starts - Believe Tree by Mary McLenon (M Designs).   I will post a picture of my progress tomorrow.

Thanks for stopping by and for all your lovely comments.  I enjoy reading them.

Take care and happy stitching!!!!
