charcuterie anyone?
Holidays are here! It’s December and all is merry and bright right? Right?!
Anyways, the holidays always make me think of food and what treats my mouth might be enjoying this season. I had the pleasure of dried apricots dipped in chocolate last night! Thanks Jan! Those were amazing…
ummmm, i would DEMOLISH this
I usually skip out on the baking, and make nuts and bolts or more savory food types instead of the cookies. Cheese balls, quiches, I’m all about the balance of the sweet and the salty. It’s easy to see how we can get chubby around the holidays… Always be sure to drink water and remember, portion control! It’s no fun having holiday gut pain because of overeating.
green bean bake for the win!
