Although this is a post from last Christmas, it hits the same nerve this year.

I used to love Christmas and the fun of preparing for it, but now it’s feeling empty and, well, stupid. I love to give handmade or baked things, but am with a man whose family really doesn’t appreciate such things. After struggling for some years with the whole thing, I’m back, this year, to handmade and baked.

Thank you for the little nudge (combined with the swift kick in the pants) I needed.

Ah, yes. I remember when I used to just take my time and shop leisurely for friends and family. Today, well, no time, so am also making some goodies. Thanks for the reminder. These were good biscotti. Not as crunchy as usual. Nice job on yours.
