I had Annie and Maggie over to my apartment today to bake Christmas cookies. We shopped for ingredients yesterday, which was interesting as many items are really hard to find here, such as powdered sugar and almond extract. In any case, we finally were able to find all the ingredients...or suitable substitutes. :) Many places here also don't have ovens, so we had to do our baking in my toaster oven. Funny! It was a slow process, but luckily we had Christmas music and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "The Grinch" to keep us entertained. And in the end, we had delicious sugar cookies, snickerdoodles, and chocolate-peanut butter cookies as a reward!
