Egg Nog - A Holiday Family Favorite


Welcome Back!

Time to share another one of my family traditions with all of you.  Egg Nog!  Yumm...one of my family's favorites that I make each Christmas & one I am going to prepare ahead of time tonight.  I've relied on the same recipe year after year from my Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook.

Keeping Christ in Christmas

"For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." - Luke 2:11

I’ve been thinking a lot about the true meaning of Christmas lately.  It is so easy to get caught up in the hustle & bustle of the season.  What was once a religious holiday that focused on the birth of our Savior has sadly, for many, become no more than a commercialized holiday where department stores mislead us into thinking that the only way to achieve happiness and celebrate the season is by maxing out the credit card.

A Holiday Favorite Gets a Healthy Makeover



Good Morning Ladies! 

Well, here we are half way through December and only 9 days until Christmas.  Hard to believe!  I had the day off from work yesterday, so I was busy kicking the Christmas spirit into high-gear.   I finished decking the halls, mailed out the Christmas cards & began my favorite holiday pastime, baking cookies!  Yum!   I found this recipe online and wanted to share with all of you.
