Merry Christmas, friends! Since I can’t exactly send you all a Christmas card, I thought I would share it here 🙂 This year has been a doozie for my little family! Lots of crazy-awesome-ridiculous things happened in 2013 including: adding another member to our family, remodeling our kitchen and publishing my ebook all at the same time {!!!} while still somehow staying sane….I think.
We are so grateful for all you loyal readers. You are so supportive and make me want to keep blogging and developing recipes. I love talking with you all on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and all the other forms of social media I have. Keep those comments coming!

December 23, 2013 at 8:56 amProbably because It’s fresh on my mind, I’m going with the Peanut Butter Toffee Cookies. I bookmarked this one several months ago to add into the Holiday baking mix, and I LOVE them. Big Bonus–my teenage sons love them, too. Soft, chewy, peanut buttery and toffee-y (?). Not much room for improvement, there. Thanks, and Merry Christmas!

December 23, 2013 at 8:56 amI first tried the brownies with the cookie butter frosting and have continued on with quite a few recipes. I think you must read my mind with all the delicious picks you post – it always seems to fit my mood. My next try is the pull apart bread/spinach artichoke dip. Yummo!

December 23, 2013 at 8:57 amI am a big fan of yours. I love all the recipes I have tried. If I had to choose one of them that would be mini chocolate doughnut muffins, my little daughter loves them (both to help me making them and to taste them) Merry Christmas!!

December 23, 2013 at 8:58 amWay way long ago LOL you posted a recipe for Butternut Squash Mac & Cheese. My boys love veggies and will eat just about any kind prepared any way; but that recipe they went APE over. They loved it!! I think doing the saute’ with all those little brown bits makes it super sweet and extra tasty.
