Been there before. But what usually happens is I'll go buy $20 worth of shit to make something & forget the one key thing for the recipe.

I've just gotten out my Christmas box, the one I keep in the cupboard under the stairs and get out once a year. 

In there, I found an Xmas recipe from 1990.  Every year I've unloaded this box of goodies and every year I've re-read this wonderful recipe.

I've never managed to find all the ingredients though, at least not altogether at the right time.



Today I bought mad decorations instead of cinnamon sticks and vanilla beans...

That usually ends up being a kitchen staple for me  ::)

Guilty!  ;D

Chocolate chips hardly ever make it into cookies  :P

Ok, I held out as long as I could, ...but it wasn't long. Santa is not getting any cookies this year.
