    Author Notes:

    Holiday Fic #2: An unlikely source helps Bette gain a new perspective.

    She picked up the lid of the cookie tin and fitted it on. “I’ll just take these over to Max, then,” she said.

    “Okay,” Tina said. “We’ll be right here.”

    Bette went out the back door into the faintly chilly morning and headed next door. She rapped on the back door and after a few moments Max opened it.

    “Hey, Bette,” he said, seeming surprised to see her.

    “Hi, Max. We wanted to give you these,” Bette held out the tin. “Christmas cookies, straight from the oven.”

    “Oh. Thanks!” Max’s face lit up as he lifted the lid. “Awesome!”

    “Enjoy,” Bette said, noting that he seemed genuinely pleased. Tina was right again. “I’m sure you’ll be getting more in a day or two. The girls are on a baking spree this morning.”

    Max grinned. “That’s so sweet. You’re lucky that you get to do that kind of stuff with Angelica. It’s going to be years before I can have that kind of fun in the kitchen with this baby,” he said, patting his belly.

    “You’ll be amazed at how fast the time passes,” Bette said, suddenly feeling a little sad as the realization began to sink in. “Pretty soon, all you have left are the memories." Her baby was growing up so fast…

    “I’ll make sure I take advantage of it while it lasts.” Max raised the tin slightly. “The way you and Tina do.”

    “Yeah,” Bette said, feeling a little shamed by her grouchy attitude earlier. “Anyway, I’ve got to get back. See you later, Max.”

    “Bye, Bette. And thanks again.”

    Bette made her way back across the yard and paused at the back door, listening to Tina and Angelica’s laughter. She went inside to the kitchen, all smiles. “So what else can I do to help out?”

    “Mama, help me mix this?” Angie asked, holding a small bowl of batter.

    Bette went over and swiped some spilled flour from the counter and dotted Angie’s nose with it. The little girl giggled and Bette helped her mix up the batter, exchanging a look and a quick kiss over Angie’s head with Tina, who looked pleased at Bette’s change of heart.

    Bette and her girls spent the rest of the morning baking cookies and making some new memories.

    1. I’m loving these little sweet treats of yours, omalley! Bette’s snarky comments are hilarious… “a tin full of diabetes”… I’m still cracking up as I write this! Can’t wait for the next one.

    2. Ebenezer Porter amd Max plays the dual tole of the Ghost of Christmas present and future. I have heard that Santa has a third list in addition to “naughty” and “nice.”. His third list is “grumpy” and, luckily for Bette, Tina and Angelica (and Max) got Bette erased from that list. But did she get moved to “naughty” or “nice”? Hmmm. Thank you for your second installment. Please, omalley, I want some more. (Wrong Dickens, but “God bless us everyone” didn’t quite fit these circumstances.)

    3. Teasing Tina=2; Curmudgeon Bette = 0. I do love how you have Bette get into the season at the end of both stories. Kinda reminds me of Oscar the Grouch. He’d be cranky but always there with the last punch-line.My fav curmedgeon Bette line: I was thinking it looked like a tin full of diabetes, but I guess for some, it might be ‘nice’.”I’m so happy to read your holiday stories!!! Thank you so much! Can’t wait till tomorrow… Yeah!

    4. i LOVE THE HOLIDAYS You can make so many memories, that keeps you warn on cold winter nights. Children grows up so fast and go to the four winds and sometime all you have are those memories. thanks

    5. Hahahaha Bette lost against the christmas spirit lol. Tina is very patient because I would have kick Bette ass out of the kitchen a long time ago pmsl. I love the Christmas spirit lol. Thank you for posting. PPVS

    7. Why, oh why hasn’t Bette learned that she can not win against those two lovely pretties she loves so much. Tina knows a million ways around that pretend coldness and curnudgeoness and just loves to trick Bette into complying to her wishes. Love how Tina and Angie gets to her everytime. Can’t wait until they make her decorate a tree. lol Thanks for posting. Love these Christmas stories of yours.

    13. I swear Bette act as if she just doesn’t consume any calories, but shes addicted to coffee which is bad for you with all the caffeine, im happy in these stories that she always comes to the realization of what’s really important!
