eleventh day of advent
I’ve been getting more and more long winded as these days of advent go by, but today is busy so I’ll skip the pithiness. Download these logs to color here, buy the advent calendar coloring book here, and show the world your art here.
If you’d like to see all the pages so far or just pass the link on you can now find them all in one place: the category for the advent calendar coloring pages.

Cookies! My favorite thing about christmas is always the cookies. I’m embarrassed to say I haven’t made a single christmas cookie yet, but these chocolate espresso ones are on deck (or in the freezer, whatever) and I have a gingerbread project in the works. In past years I have made (and loved) these fig pinwheels, these amazing spoon cookies, english toffee, gunpowder balls (but everyone has a different name for them), chocolate gingerbread cookies, surprisingly good earl grey tea cookies, prune rugelach (could a cookie sound more geriatric? don’t let that stop you -they are good), these pain in the ass, but so so awesome chestnut cream cookies, and I guess I could just go on and on, but I’m getting hungry. What cookies are you making this year? Feel free to put it off to tomorrow and just sit down and color with your kids today. Download the cookie page here (and buy the whole book here, if you like).

We are buried under a foot of snow here this morning! So the day’s plan is to bundle the kids up and put them outside to play, thaw them out with hot chocolate and then get out the art box and color color color. Whatever the weather is like where you are you can download today’s coloring page here.
As always, buy the coloring book here and show off your work here!
eighth day of advent
We are bracing ourselves for a big storm here in the midwest and I don’t even know if the lakes are frozen over yet. Wasn’t it 60 on Thanksgiving? My system is a little in shock, so I’ll be staying in and coloring today’s picture: download it here. But I’m sure we’ll be able to skate this weekend as the high temperature will be 1 degree fahrenheit, but I’m guessing we won’t even try to go outside.
