Merry Almost Christmas to ya!
Are your presents all wrapped and your cookies all made?!
Hopefully you are doing better than me. . .
Hubs and I fly home tonight from our wonderful
yet somewhat bruise-inducing, family vacation in Colorado.
Yay ski helmets that protect my little brainsies.
Anywayza.
So glad you came back for the last and best installment of the Christmas Candy series.
This is the easiest and favoritest of them all.
So turn on your Christmas tunes.
Don your red and green apron
Prepare to create Christmas magic in your mouth
