Impish Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I've already made 2 different (x2/x3) batches of cookies. All gone. Wolf is the main culprit, esp where the thumbprint cookies are concerned. :glare: So now, I have cheesecake in the oven. I didn't get a single cookie, since I wasn't able to chew. Cheesecake I *can* eat though. I think I'm gonna eat it all myself, and threaten to injure anyone that touches it. I might not be so cranky if Wolf hadn't been snarly this am, but he was. So noooo cheesecake for him! *best Soup Nazi voice* And the kids just don't appreciate it as much as I do :tongue_smilie: And I really get ticked at having to rebake what I've already done b/c ppl can't restrain themselves from pigging out. I swear I'm going to quit baking for the holidays altogether. Course, I think that every year....*sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 *sigh* I can't even foot stomp properly, I guess! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mejane Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Good for you. Rum goes really well with cheesecake, too, fyi. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 Rye, baby. I got incredibly sick on rum as a teen, haven't touched it since. But give me a Canadian Club and Coke...*drool* Seriously, how the heck does anyone manage to keep baking around until Christmas? Without having to rebake anything/everything? Safes? Chains and locks? Death threats? Christmas Eve bake-a-thons? I really do find it frustrating. And expensive. And, considering the one armedness, a heck of a lot of work.

Denisemomof4 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 YOU MUST HIDE THOSE COOKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's how they are around for Christmas! I hide mine and this year I have built in shelves in a locked area. PERFECT for hiding presents and cookies.:tongue_smilie: I love rye bread. I forget what your version of rye is but I'm just saying I love rye bread. :001_tt2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 Rye is rye. :D Its just also used to make rye whiskey. There's no safe place to hide anything in this joint. Btwn the kids, Wolf, and the animals (furry ones, not birthed or married to ones) they suss out baking in 30 seconds or less. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let them know it's for Christmas? If they don't listen, then go the bodily harm route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 Tell 'em not to eat it and that ends up with crumbs left, and denials all around. And I know my husband is the biggest culprit. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz CA Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Yes, there is no way around it. Hide them! I once was baking on the afternoon of Christmas eve (and our Christmas celebration is on Christmas Eve in the evening!) because all the cookies were gone. Not going to happen again! How are you feeling aside from the holiday crazyness? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 I would be rigging the tins with an electric shock system. Tempting. But reality of it is, I'd end up zapping myself while setting it up, and looking like the Bride of Frankenstein. Yes, there is no way around it. Hide them! I once was baking on the afternoon of Christmas eve (and our Christmas celebration is on Christmas Eve in the evening!) because all the cookies were gone. Not going to happen again! How are you feeling aside from the holiday crazyness? :D Sore, to be honest. If its not the mouth, its the stoopid arm. hit bed before supper last night, and already eying my breakthrough meds now, just from wrapping a few gifts.
