Chocolate chip cookies are great. Peanut butter cookies are amazing. But my all time favorite Christmas cookie? Ginger Molasses Cookies!

12 Days of Christmas Cookies: Bailey’s Chocolate Cookies
Well, holiday fun is certainly in full swing! Last weekend Nick and I attended his squadron’s Christmas party, which just happened to be an ugly Christmas sweater party.

Honey Nut Cookies

Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies
I couldn’t let a holiday go by without making something themed! As I was thinking about making something for Valentine’s Day, it occurred to me that it was around this time last year that I started my blog. My first recipe was Valentine’s Day Popcorn Mix. When I went to check the exact day that…
