Christmas cookies. Some half-baked relative owned a bakery, so the ladies in the extended family would bake for the holidays for them. I remember my mother and sisters would start right after Thankgiving baking all kinds of cookies. They would fill 5 gal. tins with different kinds. I would get to help decorate the easy ones. Everyday right up until the week before Christmas. Unfortunately, I can't stand Christmas cookies anymore, but love the aromas.
