Busy Day Planned…..

Today I am getting all the baking and cooking done for my Cookie Exchange Party tomorrow evening.  

ITEM FOR COOKIE TRAY:

Cookies Santa’s Whiskers – In fridge Cooling – will bake tonight
Chocolate Coated Pretzels – 1/2 of white Chocolate Done – Hubby is making!
Chocolate Oatmeal Drops –  DONE
Fantasy Fudge
 – Done

And of course, back again this year by request, Jen’s Hot Cocoa Mix

APPETIZER BUFFET:

Olive Bread –  (make mixture a head of time) -Done
Holiday Bacon Appetizers – Can Make ahead and freeze.  Thaw and warm in oven for 10 minutes.
Veggie Tray – Store Bought
Shrimp Cocktail
Artichoke Heart Dip – Done in the Fridge ready to bake after work tomorrow.

I will make a bunch of extra pretzels, fudge and oatmeal drops to put together for my niece and nephews.  I usually make those living on their own a frozen lasagna, but I don’t think with me having knee surgery in two days that is going to happened.  

I will only use a portion of the veggie tray and keep the rest of our family party on Saturday.  I will freeze the extra bacon appetizers as well for Saturday.  The more I can do ahead of time the better.   We have abour 30 people coming over on Saturday.  They are all bringing the food as I will only be post surgery by about 4 days.   I will put out appetizers later in the evening. 

Christmas Eve will be hubby, the boys and I.  I will make appetizers for supper that night as well.   We got some store bought ones as I am unsure how much I will be standning.
