My kids are out of school  for the holiday break  so I will be taking the time off too. I am excited to spend quality time with them and hope to do some skiing, sledding, and ice skating as well as cook some old favorite recipes, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy the holiday season. Here is a round up of a few of my favorite recipes.
