Love that CeCe - I need to figure out how to do that - very clever!

[Trisha]

Sounds wonderful! But...just how big is a buckeye?

Well, it depends. If my son is making them, they are quite large, LOL! I'll post a pic of some he made. They really should be a bit smaller.

[Gigi]

Wow - that's a lot of buckeyes (and what a handsome son you have!)

[CeCeCreates]

Thanks Gigi. You should see him all dressed up in a tux! Hey, maybe I have a pic of that. Well, he doesn't have his suit coat on here, but still dressed up a bit, LOL!

[Trisha]

Thank you, Cece. Very nice looking son you have!

Here is my recipe. I did not do it like everyone else because I didn't know how to use the "snipping tool". So I just created everything in MTC. It took forever! When you cut this out, just make sure you close the layers on everything except the green layer! I am sure you don't want to cut out each letter on this thing! I sure hope it works for you all! It worked when I tried it, but I always do everything the hard way! By the way, the cookies are really good also!

Beautiful Shirl. These all turned out so nice -what a great collection of tried and true!

[CeCeCreates]

I love the way it turned out Shirly. Before I read what you said, I thought it was so clever of you to do the background "paper" like you did.

[Elsa]

That turned out really nice. Praline cookies....yum!

[LisaH]

really cute Shirl!

[shirltop]

Thank you ladies!

[corwins]

sounds yummy

[craftychris]

All I can say is Everyone's recipies sound yummy. I might borrow the idea of printing out the recipies and make a book!

[Quicklabs]

Everyone did such an awesome job on this challenge. Pulling these all together would make the most beautiful recipe box ever. And I can hardly wait to try some of these recipes. I am a lousy baker, but so many of these look do-able even for me! Thanks so much for this great challenge, Sheri. Though I didn't have time to participate this year, you can be sure I'll be making some of these recipe cards to give out with my best recipe for Krupnik (a Polish recipe, in my family forever--one litle glass of this (vodka, honey, lemon, cinnamon, cloves, oranges) tand you will definitely see Santa and his flying reindeer) hope you'll keep this posted through Christmas, Christy!

[LisaH]

[Trisha]

I like the way you did your card, Shirl! And that recipe sounds yummmmmmmmyy!!
