Holiday Treats

Let me just say this, as of now baking is NOT my forte. I'm slowly (and sort of successfully) making attempts to learn along the way. This new endeavor lead to me inheriting my Grandmother's Marble Rolling Pin which was her pride and joy. Let's hope it holds some magic in it.

One thing I learned this year is that I can make chocolate covered pretzel rods (see post from last May). I opened a bottle of wine, popped in my NSYNC Christmas CD (yes, I'm still a 13 year old girl at heart) and got to work.

It brought back great memories of learning to do this with Becky :o) I'm also very thankful to have an awesome and creativity-supportive fiance who never knows what he will come home to after work, but just laughs in good humor (this time it was a chocolate covered kitchen with platters of drying pretzels strewn all over our small apartment)
