Holiday sweets perfect for sharing
The holidays are here and the air is crisp as lacy snowflakes contemplate where to land. Festooned boughs on Christmas trees, favorite holiday carols, glowing hearths and warm hearts fill homes as the holiday nears, making the season bright for everyone involved.
This season also is a time when nearly every kitchen becomes more fragrant as many of us prepare special treats for family and friends. Each of us probably thinks of a different homemade holiday treat we enjoy at this time of year.
Whatever your favorite, try some of these delicious recipes for your family and friends. They also make great gifts for those in service jobs, such as your mail carrier, dry cleaner, day care provider, pastor or anyone else you just want to say “Merry Christmas” to this season. Long after the holidays are over, you’ll still enjoy preparing these treats as you remember the gifts of cheer and time shared with friends and loved ones during the season.
