My favorite thing about the holiday season is the traditions! Some of my most fondest memories are surrounded by the traditions we have during the holidays. I love that you can always create new traditions – it’s never too late!
Growing up my family and I always had the tradition of going caroling and bringing treats to our neighbors, friends, and people in our church. Let me be the first to tell you that my family is not a choir family. We have very little experience in singing and I am sure it was more for peoples amusement then pleasure – but those memories have always stuck with me. It was more about visiting those families. Asking how they were doing, seeing if they needed anything. It was great to catch up and a lot of times we would have to pry my dad out of peoples houses because he loves to chat it up.
We would spend hours baking! Brownies, cookies, fudge, you name it and we probably made it. This year we are making Peanut Butter Brownie Cookies, made with Betty Crocker Peanut Butter Cookie Mix found at Sam’s Club. As you guys know I am a huge chocolate and peanut butter fan and this mixture is so delicious. A brownie and cookie all in one, how can it get any better? So we definitely stock up on these mixes.

Leftovers are one of the the other things I love about the holidays! I hope this year we end up with some of these babies left.
We always stock up on Sam’s Club white hoagies! They are the best for leftover turkey or ham sandwiches. Ahh my mouth is watering just thinking of them. Treats and food are the way to my heart! And these holiday traditions fit perfectly in line with that.
