I hosted Christmas for 28 years and the moment I loved most was never the meal or the gifts - it was 11 PM when the last car pulled away and I stood in the kitchen alone with the mess and finally exhaled for the first time in 12 hours - Silicon Canals

Holiday Baking Beyond Cookies

Let's talk about holiday baking that goes beyond cookies! These are the festive winter bakes to try. The list includes an ultra fragrant gingerbread cake, a bright citrus loaf, and the perfect flourless chocolate cake.
