Part
2: Baking
I always make time during the Christmas holidays for
baking. I love the smell of cinnamon, cloves, oranges, lemons, sugar cookies,
breads, and the pot of spiced tea that sits on the stove.
I love the together time with my children. Although it
is just me and Noelle now, her love for baking is infectious. I’m fairly sure
that part of her love for baking originates from memories making snowmen,
wreathes, snowflake and gingerbread men cookies with me and her other siblings.
Or maybe it’s the laughter, the tasting, the flour fights and being all
together in the kitchen with her family. For both Noelle and me it is thinking
and naming the family and friends that will get to eat all the things we make.
Baking is a traditional Christmas activity that brings
thoughts and memories of fun family times that I will always treasure.
