I'm back. Thanksgiving was great, my nephew is, in fact, the cutest Baby EVER, I'm more than halfway through Don Quixote, and life in general is good. I'll post pics later. Now, however, I must fulfill my sacred duty and bake like there's no tomorrow. This year: Various biscotti, pebbernodder (of course), various truffles and possibly sugar cookies. We'll see. Plus maybe creme de menthe squares for the locals -- I don't think they'd ship well.

To the kitchen!
