Mexican Wedding cookies...



OK...I re-named these to Mexican Peso cookies.  For what ever reason...they flattened out when I baked them (instead of staying in a ball form).  And you know what..I like these waaaaaay better.  They are super light and crisp.  And perfect with a nice strong cup of coffee.  Yep...that is all good.

So my dear friend died on my birthday...WTF?  Ugh...that totally sucked.  But the good thing (if there is one) is that he is no longer suffering.  Cancer is an effing bitch.  It takes too many good people from us.

*sigh*

But I don't want to sit here and boo hoo. I want to celebrate his life...and mine for that matter!  Hell yeah...let's celebrate, tis the season!

Not sure how much blogging I will be getting in over the next few days.  As it's busier than a bee's behind in my house (is a bee's behind busy?  Hmmmm...just like the way that sounded).

Anyway...what ever you are celebrating this season...I wish you much love, light, peace and happiness!!!

Cheers!!!

Dear Caroline...I'm so sorry to hear that your friend died.

Love those cookies, but my family calls them Aunt Betty's Balls (HA!)

Wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas!

Cancer is a bitch. I lost both of my parents to cancer within one year. You are right. I don't think there's any worse illness out there to watch someone go through.

Good for you to want to celebrate his life. And yours too.

Happy Birthday and a very merry to you!
