Mum and I baked two more types of Christmas cookies this morning. We're sticking to two or three types a day so as not to overtire her. We completed seven kinds now, sour cream sugar, M&M, Aunt Katie (a butterscotch pecan cookie from mum's great aunt Katie's recipe), chocolate chip, orange pecan, a drop shortbread butter cookie, another shortbread type with chocolate chips and finely chopped walnuts. Tomorrow we'll do one kind, the cutout cookie from my step-grandmother's recipe. We think it came over with the family from Ireland because it refers to the cookies as biscuits. When those are finished we should be about halfway through the list.
