Well I thought with Christmas around the corner some of you might be doing last minute baking (you brave souls) and others may be covered in flour as I speak, with dough plastered on their eyebrow to create a interesting look. Others like me are still trying to clean up the sprinkles from decorating cookies and cakes.

I Thought I would share a Classic Recipe in case you are looking for something else to bake (hahah riiiiight ). Some of you may have this down to a T. Others may of already seen this recipe before, nether less its quite funny.
