Thought I'd share my favorite Christmas cookie recipe .. enjoy!

Favorite Christmas Cookies

1 cup of water

2 tsp baking soda

1 cup of sugar

1 tsp salt

1 cup of brown sugar

Lemon juice

4 large eggs

1 cup nuts

2 cups of dried fruit

1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequila

Sample the Cuervo to check for quality.

Take a large bowl, check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest

quality, pour 1 level cup and drink.

Turn on the electric mixer. Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl.

Add one teaspoon of sugar. Beat again.

At this point it's best to make sure the Cuervo is still OK ... try another

cup ... just in case.

Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the bowl and chuck in the cup of dried fruit.

Pick the friggin fruit off the floor. Mix on the turner.

If the fried druit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a

drewscriver.

Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsisticity.

Next, sift two cups of salt, or something. Who giveshz a sheet.

Check the Jose Cuervo.

Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts.

Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or some fink. Whatever you can find.

Greash the oven.

Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over.

Don't forget to beat off the truner.

Finally, throw the bowl through the window, finish the Cose Juervo and make sure to put the stove in the dishwasher.

CHERRY MISTMAS!!!

Cherry Mistmas to you, Ciro! My long years of culinary experience tell me, even ahead of tasting your recipe, that it will be delicious.

But there's something I have to tell you. I hope it won't end what I thought could be a beautiful friendship between us. I don't cook. I don't like to cook. In fact, I hate cooking -- I hate it, I tell you, hate it, hate it, hate it!

Dayaaaam, Ciro, Good cookies, but I got a hangover just reading the recipe.

We got any rumballs? *hic*

(How the heck are we going to make rumballs and Christmas cookies with no sugar and no booze?)

Cherry Mistmas to you, Barbara!

I hate cooking -- I hate it, I tell you, hate it, hate it, hate it!

I believe you, Barbara!

The reason I like it, is because at sixteen years old,

I found myself in a far away land,

with no education, no money,

and away from home.

I found myself standing in the mud

facing this huge immense wall.

I was scared, cold, I tried to go around it,

but, there was no way around it.

I asked people to help,

never , for help, they were not interested to have a quality of life but just to live their life, but how? somehow they said!

When I asked; why are we facing this wall? What have we done?

in their bovine eyes no answer I found.

But then, I found an exit through a kitchen,

I took it, and put all my heart and soul to learn, and to stay there.

It was warm,

the food smelled and tasted good.

And now, after 30 years,

I found myself rich,

with a beautiful family,

and being a friend of Barbara Branden!

What else do I want!

Cherry Mistmas, Barbara!

Ciro D'Agostino.

Kat, love you too!

Marry Christmas, to you, your children, and of course to MSK!

Ciao amici, voglio farvi gli auguri anche in Italiano.

Buon Natale, la vita vale! godiamocela con serenita e amore!

red alert!! Security Breach! Security Breach! arrrrgh.... I think I fixed the problem. Leave it to that punk kid Jody to know when I left the door unlocked. We are now protected by the secret service. Let's see if we get our tax dollars worth.
