Christmas Baking and Daisy's Dirndl



Such a busy day in the kitchen, and at the work computer.


Daisy executed her long-held plan of making marzipan mushrooms,


and putting them on our Buche de Noel.


Then it was time to get ready for evening church, the Christmas music service. Daisy had piano *and* clarinet solos, and thought she'd wear her dirndl.


I made this for her in the fall, faking it from a 50s pattern for a skirt and weskit.


She's very woodlandy.


That's why her mushrooms look so real.

Daisy in your first photo (the one after the Yule Log) you look just like I imagine Heidi did at your age!

How strange to see my Fiskars kitchen scissors sitting on your worktop! Daisy looks very well in her dirndl. Merry Christmas to all at Pleasant View Schoolhouse.

Fabulous photos! It's so nice that, even though G. does it for a living, he still enjoys taking pictures of his family on his off time. Love that Daisy shot with the hair flipping up!

Great mushrooms, Daisy! She does look like a woodland creature. I love the Buche de Noel tradition and yours is gorgeous--I've never been brave enough to attempt one on my own, but my dear friend makes one...with pretty little meringue mushrooms, too!
