Peppermint Crinkle Cookies

For those of you don’t know me, I’m going to tell you I have all these weird rules and traditions. One of them being peppermint candy to mark Christmas baking. No peppermint candy until Nov. 1 st.

As many of you know I’m an obsessive baker but lately my husband hasn’t been feeling well and finally ended up in the hospital. Needless to say, I was too worried, pre-occupied and tired to focus on baking.

Am I complaining? Not yet . . . and not really? Let’s play semantics and call it a gripe because the only person who can complain is Matt.
