Depression. It's a silent killer.

Christmas Eve. Only one more day until the holidays are over.
It’s snowing here in my area of the PNW.
I don’t include new years in my holidays to avoid list. For me it’s a time of new beginnings.
I hope you have the best day you can.
Be safe out there.
Love you.
 
This has been a really rough holiday season for me this year. Worse than I can ever remember.

But I got a good laugh out of this… and I think you may too.

When I was little, my mother used to make Christmas cookies, my favorite being her pinwheel cookies which we always called swirls.

They are super hard to make, and my mileage varies year to year…

They are painstaking to make… they require a bakers hand. But I try every year to make them… they are refrigerator cookies, and so you have to make the dough, refrigerate them to make them harden up some, then roll them into thin sheets, let them harden again, then take the chocolate and the vanilla ones and roll them up into a roll. Then slice. Mine came in very dry this year.

Inspiration for Festivus poem of airing of grievances.

What they should look like…

How they turned out. 😂

Keep trying and thank you for the chuckle. Hugs.
 
I want to thank everybody for the emotional support over this past year! As others have stated, it has been a pretty rough year, for a number of different reasons, but every day we have with each other, whether it be in person or through the bulletin board, it's a gift. I wish you all the Merriest of Christmas's and a blessed new years!

Thank you for being here. Every bit is a help to someone and ourselves.

They tasted amazing, no doubt.
