MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! {And happy holidays for those who don't celebrate Christmas :) Don't want to offend anyone!} I love this time of the year so much. Maybe it's because there are always goodies like Buckeyes, fudge, potato candy, and cookies...it could be the magic of Santa...or perhaps spending so much time at home with family who we only see two times a year. I hope everyone is having an amazing Christmas and a super awesome New Year.

My mother-in-law and I had been discussing different things for Christmases to come...you know, instead of doing the traditional ham. Prime rib was one of the things she mentioned. I think I'm down for that...same day I saw these:

My husband is really big into philly cheesesteak and he's not always wanting pizza because of all the carbs...so I found this in hopes we could compromise on pizza time!

Thought I'd gather up a couple peppermint recipes.  I think both of these would be great for Christmas Day.

And probably the coolest recipe I found this week was the gingerbread house dough...too cool. I love the use of fondant on this one. It's gorgeous!
