What's Christmas without sweets?

Over the Christmas holiday I enjoyed some time in the kitchen baking. This is something I receive so much joy from. It is therapeutic and so very rewarding.....Food is at the heart of every family. The food varies BUT for all of us taste evokes so many memories of family and love. Taste can totally take you back to wonderful places and wonderful people. I simply love to be a part of that transportation. It is joy to see the smiles on the faces of my family & friends when they are totally enjoying what I made for them. This year I made a lot less trying to keep everyone on their fitness plans, but a few special treats is always in order for the holiday! One of the sweetest treats I made this year were snickerdoodles with Will and Maya. I love cooking with my grand babies! They did a great job and they were so proud of their cookies...
























Here are a few other sweet treats I made..
