Baking to pass the time

So it's now been 5 days since any contact from my husband. Heartbreaking I must say. The hardest part of the deployment is seeing everyone's Facebook status' about how they talked to their husbands, via Skype, phone, etc. I would just like to know my husband got to his COP safe and is there. I still don't know where he is. But that's the military lifestyle for you.

ANYWAYS...

So theres a wonderful wife out here in Alaska who started up this awesome website/blog. DEPLOYMENT KITCHEN 365 (<--- CLICK THERE FOR AWESOME RECIPES).

So today she posted a recipe for biscotti (my favorite) and I had everything I needed to make it so I baked my little heart out tonight. Baking seems to make the time go by faster so I bake. (daily..) So in terms of deployment.. I'm on my 5th care package for my husband in a month.. Yep he's spoiled. I have to much time on my hands, but once baby comes in Feb the care package factory will be slowing down. 

Mixed the yummy goodness (I have to admit I kept stealing pieces of it) 

Biscotti in progess

It looked just like her's! I am SO proud of myself..

So the biscotti was a SUCCESS.. Tomorrow I'm making more to send to family. Hubby's is already packed up and ready to be sent out tomorrow. Hopefully he enjoys it as much as I did. (3 of pieces are already in my stomach, had to pack it up ASAP)
