It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas....

Countdown until Christmas: 29 days! What other sentence could bring so much excitement, worry, anxiety, and nerves? Shopping days are crawling to an end, Christmas cards need to be mailed soon, and goodies need to be baked. Everywhere you shop, you can find candy canes, chocolates, gumdrops, peppermints, fudge, bark, cookies, toffee, truffles, brittles, marzipan, fruitcakes, and gingerbread.  There are just so many different Christmas goodies to name, where do I even start?


There are cookies: shortbread, sugar, gingerbread, cherry, Santa's whiskers, gingersnaps, butterballs, and melting moments. 
There are cakes: fruit cakes, yule logs, buches de noel, and figgy puddings.
There are breads: Christmas tree bread, panettone, and stollen.
Then there is dinner: turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, carrots, turnips, peas, brussels sprouts, sweet potatoes, ham, cranberry sauce, fresh bread, green beans, and gravy.
There is also: mincemeat pie, eggnog, bread pudding, and ciders.

Mmm, mmm! The holidays are here, enjoy!
