FEAR OUR MIGHT, PUNY MORTALS. Ahem. I mean, happy holidays!

On Wednesday, my mom is coming over to do Christmas baking with me. She's already made four kinds of cookies and more kinds of bread than I know about. I've already done two and will be making the lussekatter today.

Not if you plan your cookie baking like a military operation and calculate how much you will need with spreadsheets, or else many tiny slips of paper and five cookbooks held open with fruit across the kitchen table, and also it helps if you buy Penzey's vanilla by the pint.

We do plan our cookie baking like a military operation! It's just that it's the kind of military operation that involved dumping as many dried fish, willing Vikings, and casks of mead as one could find in a boat and setting out across the North Sea.

Mostly we end up with enough dried fish.

I didn't buy enough butter and cardamom so back to the store tomorrow. I think I'll get some lavender too to make lavender shortbread because I just realized my cookes are all spice cookies...

Variety is sometimes the non-spice of life, too.
