The Twelve Treats of Christmas: Cinnamon Logs
So Spiced Nuts and Chocolate Bark are nothing new and not very exciting, but here's something you may never have heard of (at least I know I had never heard of it!): Cinnamon Logs. The recipe was featured in our local newspaper around[...] |

The Twelve Treats of Christmas: Eggnog Latte
Last but not least... I'm sure you're either too busy to think about baking anymore, or too wrapped up in Christmas dinner plans, or maybe you're actually just relaxing and enjoying the holiday. Perhaps, like me, you're rushing off to a[...] |

Christmas is really coming up fast, isn't it? At least for me it is. I say that every year, but this year, I really mean it. I am slightly overwhelmed by all that needs to be done between now and then. But I wouldn't change a thing about it! I[...] |
