Yes, but

I may, at times, be a fool...but at least today, I'm a cooking-baking fool.

Springerle will be baked off before I go to bed.

I'm baking oatmeal cookies now - two variations - one with chopped pecans and golden raisins, the other with crystallized ginger and bittersweet chocolate.

And I made a basic sugar cookie dough, too, which, tomorrow, will be transformed into hissing cats, bloodthirsty bats, and pumpkins. 

The timer's going off - I must go now.
