A few weeks ago, I was looking for a homemade granola recipe and came across Winter Granola at The Marathon Mom's blog. Her recipe is delicious for snacks! I have already made it again several times, tweaking the ingredients a little bit so that I can enjoy this granola as a breakfast cereal with milk (hot or cold). Try this recipe - you will love it!

Five Scrumptious Chocolate Cake in a Jar Recipes

{New Year’s Recipe} Black-eyed Peas Salsa
I was born and raised in the Deep South, where it is a New Year's tradition to eat black eyed peas for good luck in the new year.

How To Host a Perfect Holiday Cookie Exchange
I love holiday cookie exchange parties. They are fun to do with family, friends and/or coworkers. Have you ever been to one? I was recently at a Twitter party where the topic of holiday cookie exchanges came up, and noticed there were quite a few people who didn't know what a cookie exchange was all about. Basically, it's a get together where each attendee brings a huge batch of their favorite cookies (several dozen) and sets them out on a ...
