Gingerbread Cookies and a Book Review #ChristmasCookieWeek

Gingerbread Cookies are the perfect way to start off the Holiday Season.  I had my Angel Face Kitchen Elf help me decorate.  She did a great job!!

We are baking Christmas Cookies this week......

Y is for Yogurt

This delicious Greek condiment, Tzatzki, is so easy to make and so much better freshly homemade that you may never buy store-bought again.

Christmas Monster Cookies #ChristmasCookieWeek

Happy December.  Let the Holiday Baking commence.  These Monster Cookies become seasonal when you add Red and Green Peanut Butter M&M's.  They are best enjoyed with a glass of cold milk, so be sure to leave some out for Santa with these cookies when you head for bed on Christmas Eve.

Today is the first day of our Annual Christmas Cookie Week......

Impossible Lemon Pie and a Book Review #SundayFunday

This lemon custard pie takes only a few ingredients and minutes to make before putting it into the oven.  It is creamy, satisfying and delicious.

Today is National Pie Day and the Sunday Funday Bloggers are baking up a storm.....

Elf-The Roundup #Movies&Munchies

I asked the other Movies & Munchies group members to join me this month to watch the Christmas Classic, Elf.  I love this movie and we watch it each year.  This year, I was excited to attend Elf, The Musical at the gorgeous Fox Theatre in Detroit

 

Our Thanksgiving, The First Thanksgiving and the Weekly Menu starting with Leftovers #LitHappens

We had a very nice Thanksgiving with a large gathering of Family and Friends.  It was a festive, casual affair filled with love and laughter.  And some tears....for those we love who could not share the day with us due to work, distance, or other commitments and for those who are watching down from Heaven whom we miss more during the holidays, it seems.

The holidays are always bittersweet as you reminisce about days of yore and create new memories that will be shared long after you are no longer present except in spirit.  

Cranberry Squash Muffins #MuffinMonday

These savory muffins contain all the flavors of Thanksgiving.  They would be a perfect addition to your table or you could use up leftovers making them for breakfast the following day.

It's time for Muffin Monday.......
