2009 Christmas is right on the corner. The baking season is here. As usual, I started my baking task after work and in the weekends. Didn't do what I wanted to do due to the load at work. For examples, no ginger breadman, no frosted cookies. Instead, I made some toffees, nut brittle, etc.. Here are some goods I made.
