It is Thursday!!!

Just one week till Thanksgiving! I can't wait ! Looking forward to great food and all the family being together. Remembering the days of my youth when my Grandmothers and Uncle George would come to dinner. My Mother would have a gorgeous table set with lots of wonderful food. After dinner everyone would have dessert and coffee. Aww, what sweet memories! I miss those days. Now that my children have grown I keep the same traditions in my home. I still prepare food just as my Mother did and make the her Orange Cake and Cranberry Relish. Those are two of my favorite holiday dishes!

A few years back we had an old fashion Thanksgiving in Pocahontas County at Cass, WV. My Son rented a renovated Cass house and my brother, sis in law, my husband and I took all the food. It had a beautiful old fashion wooden table. We filled it up with the yummiest food anyone could ever want!

Please feel free to share you holiday memories!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Preparing for Santa!

It is the special time of the year, Christmas!  Thanksgiving is over and its time to trim the tree and put lights on the house!  My little pastry shop is full of Spritz Cookies in the shape of Christmas Trees and Snowmen, Yule Logs and The sweet smell of Cinnamon Rolls!  Oh yes and I love Christmas Songs!  Jingle Bells and Frosty the Snowman!  For the Ba Humbug people just remember to enjoy you family and praise God everyday that they are healthy and happy!   Have a Tree trimming party!  Bake Cookies and make cocoa and eggnog.   All the money in the world doesn't replace the happy smiles on your childrens faces when they help bake and decorate the cookies for Santa!   Santa also enjoys eating them!
