QTA Christmas Blog HopChristmas is the one time of year when my family comes together to enjoy at least one meal without any arguing or negativity. There may not have always been money for presents, but from the time I was a child we were able to enjoy each others’ company and it served as a reminder that we weren’t alone. No matter what happened in life, who was or wasn’t a friend, at the very least we had each other.

In recent years, my family has drifted apart and I haven’t been able to enjoy the holidays the way I used to, but I still hold the memory of all the Christmas’ we shared. All I need to do is bite into a delicious snickerdoodle (which I have been known to brighten up with food colored sugar) and all that old feeling comes rushing back in. No matter what happens, the nostalgia factor will always be there and Christmas will always be a happy time of year even if I spend it alone.

I love watching A Christmas Story and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. A Charlie Brown Christmas and all that cheery music can always make me smile. It’s cold outside and the leaves are off the maple trees, but there’s something about the crackle of a fire and the taste of eggnog, houses lit up with tiny twinkle lights, and the possibility hidden in brightly colored wrapping paper that takes me back in time to when we were all together and young.

My question for the QTA rafflecopter: What kind of cookies did I give the recipe to?

Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

Haunted by the ghost of you,
the things you said,
and made me do;
the darkness that called out to me,
pulled me in,
set me free.
I lie here in my bed at night,
dream of you,
our Maybe Life,
regret the choices that we made,
the love you took into the grave.
