Glad to hear so many are finally done with the prep. I&#39;m tired just thinking about how much you all have done today. Well the cookie experiment will need some work......they seemed to take a long time to bake and then they came out too hard. Definately need to do more experimenting before the big baking begins. Funny had no trouble with the breads and pies. Oh well, Howie will definately eat them. LOL<br /><br />Deb good luck with whatever you decide to do with JD. <br /><br />Off to haul the Christmas stuff from the attic.
