Baby It's Cold out There!

Poor ol' Norman ... trying hard to stay warm this weekend during the winter storm that hit Calgary with a vengeance on Friday.

With blowing snow and temperatures dipping to the -20's, I was in no rush to go anywhere on Saturday and felt there was no better time to bake some cookies. Found a recipe on the web for these ANZAC biscuits shown below, which produced thin, crisp oatmeal and coconut delights. I also made a batch of gingerbread "men" but in truth, few "men" were to be found amongst the fish, ice cream cones, musical notes, unicorn and elephant shapes (a result of Lyden's involvement).

Andy and I put the garland & lights on the bannister, and also put up the tree, but stopped short after affixing the lights. The tree will now remain "naked" until the weekend of Dec 19th when Rachel and Tyler make the trek home from Vancouver, thus ensuring the Price family tradition of having the kids decorate the tree, remains intact.
