Christmas Dining Room 2021

December 7th, 2021Tina0 Comments

I couldn’t be more excited to get back to holiday hosting this year so I decorated the dining room with a cozy elegant natural look. I kept the color scheme neutral with whites and greenery, but I added a pop of color using my mom’s ornaments. They were hers when she was a kid so they have a special spot to shine. I seem to drop an ornament or two every year when I’m decorating the tree so adding delicate ornaments to a bowl is a great way to showcase them and to hopefully avoid breaking any. Cozy means lots …

How to Mail Cookies

December 3rd, 2021Tina0 Comments

Baking cookies for the holidays is my thing. I love to hand out a box of assorted cookies to family and friends. I always ask them which one is their favorite, but most of the time they can’t (or won’t?) choose. Even though we weren’t able to visit with loved ones last year I was not going to let that stop me from keeping my holiday cookie tradition. So with the help of my husband, we mailed our holiday cookie boxes. It was the first time I had ever done that and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Aside from …

I’ve got Hallmark channel Christmas movies on in the background and the holiday cookie baking season has officially begun. (Let’s be real, the Hallmark channel Christmas movies have been on since before Halloween though. 😉 ) If you like gingerbread men cookies but you don’t want to take the time to roll them out, then these cookies are for you. These molasses cookies are a drop cookie so it’s just like making easy peezy chocolate chip cookies. I’ve made a similar cookie in the past called gingerbread drop cookies, but these molasses cookies are more soft and chewy. So now …

Christmas Drop Sugar Cookies

December 25th, 2020Tina0 Comments

Merry Christmas! I had one last Christmas cookie to share with you and I thought it would be appropriate to share it on Christmas day. Many of you will have fewer family members hanging out with you for the holidays and a new cookie might be something fun to make with the ones you have. These are not just any ordinary sugar cookie. You don’t have to roll out these sugar cookies into shapes. Plus, traditional sugar cookies are crispy, but these sugar cookies are soft. It’s thanks to the little bit of cream cheese, that gives them that pillowy …
