Christmas cookies

This past weekend I invited some of my little sisters from the College of Nursing to come over and bake Christmas cookies with me.  Baking is not a common hobby in PNG.  Most cooking is done over an open fire; ovens are few and far between.  So we all put on our aprons and I guided them through the process of measuring and mixing and baking and decorating.  Brigetta and Rachel were naturals, despite their lack of cookie-making experience!  I think licking the beater was their favorite thing.  Well, maybe that was mine.  And most importantly, we had a really "sweet" time together.  Love my little sisters :).
