Blogging Circle for Dec 3rd-Holiday goodies
Christmas is terrible for my weight because I have a sweet tooth. When I was working, the physicians always sent the nursing staff all kinds of candy, usually something for each shift. They would send Godiva chocolates or boxes of nuts covered in chocolate, cinnamon, or something delicious. Those cans of caramel popcorn or cheddar cheese coated. Sometimes we got cheeses, crackers or great fruits. All of it was delicious and we would stress eat. Back then I would run it off between work and kids.

At home, I would make my Mom’s favorites like Rum Balls, thumbprint cookies, and magic bars. I could go on and on over the years-when Rich’s Dept. store still had its bakery we would get their famous Coconut cake. My sister-in-law had us over for Christmas Eve and she made all kinds of homemade treats. She had more time than I did and loved to bake. When the kids were young we always made a gingerbread house and cut out sugar cookies and decorated them. People buy more stuff now. One of my daughter-in-law’s ran a bakery for awhile and she always sends special yummy things.

My oldest son always makes his famous beautiful fruit pizzas and that is my personal favorite. We will not discuss calories, I don’t eat as much as I used to but I have my annual checkup on December 27th and he will be upset with me anyway-I haven’t lost the twenty pounds I was supposed to. Oh well, back to the treadmill.

Happy Holidays to everyone!!!!!!!
