In the Kitchen ~ White Chocolate Dipped Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies....

After a busy day ... the turkey is stuffed, the veg is prepped, 

the apple pie is baked, 

Jalapeno Poppers, Devilled Eggs and Pigs in Blankets are in the fridge. 

We are all ready for tomorrow... so time to put my feet up with a pumpkin spice latte whilst Mr D helped himself to a home baked Brownie and a White Chocolate Dipped Cranberry Oatmeal Cookie..which is yummy with or without the chocolate.

Have a wonderful day tomorrow...and I will see you on the other side.
