Aww, I'm glad you enjoy it, @momtochloe!
I have a Thing for sea otters, and one of my FB friends does too. And since I will soon be living in sea otter home waters, I'll be seeing a lot more of them 😍

My day:
bought 3 tins for cookies at Big Lots and a small wall calendar for one son showing backyard birds; then I went to grocery store and bought the prime rib roast for Christmas plus other items;
then took a poinsettia to the cemetery and need two more bouquets for 2 other graves for tomorrow to visit. Somewhere in between I managed to have some lunch-- arugula salad with a slice of honey maple turkey mixed in with Italian dressing.
The poinsettia was unique in that the sepals were doubled.
Came home and made a Thai shrimp dinner with jasmine green herbed rice and started the batter for the final batch of cookies-- White Chocolate Chip Orange Dream cookies.

Many more extreme close-up photos of mom & baby.

Fluffy cuteness overload, @Moonchilde!
I am hoping that there will be another one of those live-from-the-aquarium tv shows again this year.

@GingerPeach, Big Blue Live was fabulous! I was tickled because the BBC helped make the aquarium even more world famous than it already is.

You're right! All the better for the aquarium. It's a very special place. And they do such good work advocating for all sea life.

Whew. Quite tired, but I finally got my 3 batches of biscotti done! Gingerbread biscotti topped with white chocolate, Toscani biscotti with bittersweet chocolate, and chocolate cherry biscotti - which is unfortunately naaked, because I went through 3 batches of chocolate that would not melt!

While I had my camera out, I thought I would share a picture of my mantel decor.
And a close-up of my wine butler reindeer!

Lovely mantle decorations!! We do not have a fireplace here.
Have you ever made anisette biscoti? I've a recipe for that using anise extract and ground anise seed. I think it also has sliced almonds in it too.
The biscotti look like they came out great!!

@JustJazzmom Anise is not a flavor I care for, so no I don't put it in any of my cookies. My dad was a baker and made a Christmas cookie called Springerle. They were very beautiful, but they were flavored with anise. From time to time I think about attempting to make them, and just substituting a different extract, but it's probably more of a challenge than I really feel like tackling!
