Gingerbread, Baking, and Pretty Packaging

My favorite tradition of the entire year is baking Christmas cookies.  After 40 sticks of butter and 5 bags of powdered sugar, my freezer was too full to add any more and I had to stop baking.  This tradition (and many of the recipes) came from my neighbor growing up.  We always looked forward to her cookies so I know exactly how friends and family feel, especially when they call to tell me that they ate them all!  It brings me a lot of joy, especially to add local clients to the list this year!
