Making painted Barbie nutcracker cookies & a weekend of Christmas baking | the FINAL vlogmas

ok I'm going to ask again if you can place the quote at the end of the video! Thanks for watching!

[@gbuireh6497]

It's Scrooge, from A Christmas Carol. I love that quote. And it reminds me I haven't watched A Muppet Christmas Carol yet, so off I go 😊

"Panettone French Toast Casserole" is one of those recipe names that initially sounds absurd, but when you consider it further actually sounds like it would be pretty good. 'A Christmas Carol' has so many good quotes. I only know this particular line from the Muppet version, but I'm pretty sure it's one of the many they lifted right from Charles Dickens' novel.

when i actually said the words out loud i thought the SAME thing lol! Also YES even though its from the original i was picturing the muppets version!

I just finished my fourth batch of cookies so this is timed just right to wait for them to cool :3

12:14 oh my gosh I developed a tree nut allergy this year. I can't have pecans anymore. Or walnuts or cashews. And probably no more pistachios either but I'm very sad about this.

aw man that stinks!

@ 😭😭😭😭 Luckily? Luckily for me I have a lot of experience making substitutions for gluten and dairy and other stupid things that my body doesn't like. (Autoimmune disorders are really annoying! My immune system really has other shit that it should be doing right now instead of complaining about everything I eat! However you can be sure that I just am looking for every other possible substitution that even though it's not the same it can still give like that same spirit. Things as simple as corn nuts or dehydrated soy beans to give something crunch and then dairy free caramel. So far {🤞 as of writing this and NOT tempting the universe in any, ANY, way!...} so far I am am still able to use chocolate so I can make things where I got the way of having something crunchy and caramel and chocolatey and I can sub peanuts because they're not actually tree nuts and I am OK with them.… Jesus I have not had enough chai (yes! I'm also a chai girly!) anyway I need more caffeine so hopefully you get my point I will fake it as much as I can but it's never gonna be the same as being able to eat actual pecans. Or walnuts. Or cashews which are the most recent offender. But a crappy approximation that I can lie to myself into believing is somewhat comparable will be attempted. HA!!! I hope you're having a good weekend and that your holiday looks great!
