Don’t tell anyone – I love the holidays. I love making cookies and greeting cards and wrapping presents. It’s pure design fun.

I always find myself working around the clock as the holiday approaches and think, “If I had begun all these cookies and cards decorating projects earlier, I wouldn’t have to be doing this in the middle of the night.”

But you know what? If I started earlier, I’d just do more projects. And I’d be finishing them in the middle of the night.

Household hint: buy a Bethany Pastry Cloth and board. The set simplifies cookie dough rolling out, and pie crust making, and bread kneading.

They’re not just for lefse anymore.
