Christmas was one of his favorite holidays aside from birthdays, anniversaries, and Halloween. A holiday to be with his family and friends. All together and happy. For Mike, Christmas really was about family, not presents or delicious food, family. And what is the best way to spend time in family than baking cookies?
It was harder than other years since now he had to make sure Lita wasn't an inch close to the oven, Klunk didn't try to spread flour everywhere, Pepperoni from wandering close to the fresh and PIPPING hot batch of cookies on the counter, and all while making even more cookies, both for family and for Santa Claus, since Lita asked to left cookies for him and his reindeers. So here he is, multitasking in the kitchen to make all the cookies needed, covered in flour, butter, egg shells and small burns on his hands.
"Hey, can you mix this for a second? I need to check on the batch in the oven, I won't take long" Mike asked as he watched out for Lita coming in the kitchen.
