Weekend Planning: Christmas Brunch weekend!

Tonight marks the beginning of 16 days free of work! One of the few perks of being a teacher is Christmas vacation. Let me tell you, this year, it is much needed. It has been a rough one! This weekend begins my Christmas baking as well as the Christmas brunch we are hosting. So here is the breakdown of what we have going on this weekend!

Friday:
-Baking! The biscotti must be done for Sunday and I am going to attempt to get a few of my cookies done, especially my grandma's Italian cookies, the gingerbread snowflakes, and the white chocolate cherry shortbreads. Everything else can wait until Sunday night so I can finish and send everything to my family in Idaho and package up the baskets for our neighbors.
-Finish wrapping presents
-Complete Christmas cards
-Clean master bedroom, hallway and sweep stairs

Saturday:
-Table arrives between 8 and noon! I am psyched!
-Baking, if time
-Grocery shopping for ingredients for Sunday
-Clean bathrooms
-Set up buffet and set tables
-Make winter salad and dressing
-Prep breakfast casseroles
-Dust and vacuum living areas

Sunday:
-Bake egg casserole and cinnamon rolls
-Celebrate with my family!
-Clean and relax for the rest of the day!

What do you have planned for this weekend?? Any Christmas celebrations? Baking? Tell us!
