This Would Be More Fun If I Had A Sleigh

HELP!

Oh geez, here it comes. It's.........THE HOLIDAYS.

Sure, I love all the things about them that remind you of being a kid.
BUT
It seems that we've once again piled our plates high with projects and responsibilities. Job applications, starting a business, pretending I'm actually going to write a novel, and having three households of family members living within 45 minutes of each other (and 2 1/2 hours from us) means its assumed that we can make time for everyone.

Ok, I do enjoy it...
but I'd also like to spend some time alone at home!

So the next few weeks are officially committed to MAKING CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
Yes, making them. I just need an idea...what would you like from santy claus? Moonshine? Sure! Bad origami? No problem! A paper mache lampshade? Done!

How about cookies? I can do cookies.
