Valsa George December 9, 2024 at 1:54 AM My mouth too waters. I am sure it is going to be so tempting. Our grandma's won't try many new recipes. They often make time tested recipes and those will be very yummy. Have a great week ahead. Love and hugs, dear Anne.

Kim Rodrigues December 7, 2024 at 1:22 PM Another great one! I feel all Christmas-y or am I watching too much Doctor Who…feeling energized, while the getting is good. I’ll take a bite of that crispy gingerbread now, please! Hugs and Merry ~ Kim
