Good morning everyone! I had a productive weekend: made another 109 cookies (telling hubs we now had to ease off eating them because I need to give some away), made up Christmas gifts to give away, and made up two dozen chocolate covered pretzel rods (decorated with either white chocolate, tiny gold non-pareils or multi-colored nonpareils.
I found a sale on Christmas cards and bought some, YAY! Now I have to make address labels and get more stamps...so maybe I can send cards where I didn't think I could....
I'd never tried making my own chocolate dipped pretzel rods. Aside from being a bit messy, it wasn't that hard and it was a lot of fun. Plus, you can dip and eat the broken pieces (LOL).
I didn't have that many broken pretzels, a tribute to the packaging for shipping. I looked at the store brand pretzels, but gee...there might have been one unbroken one in a bag! Going with the pricier pretzels gave me very little waste, maybe only three broken ones in the whole bag.
