We've got donuts.... dig in... They had a dozen on end-of-day sale for 1.50. I finally got smart.... The last 2 times I bought donuts like that, all icing had dripped off since they box them up on their sides... I took the donuts out of the box, and laid them down normal, and layered between wax paper and then put the box in the fridge. No more lost icing... ... do you have any idea how bad glazed donuts taste without the sugar glaze icing... yuck... |

Hi Sylvia.... do you put your donuts in the fridge? The good flavor lasts longer that way.... I just heat one up in the microwave for about 10 to 15 seconds...depending on if I want it still be cool, or all the way warm. And it still tastes fresh on the 3rd day. Still have 2 in the fridge now.... However... I also have 2 pumpkin pies in there... . And so that's what I'll be eating for my sweets. Do you buy frozen pumkin pies, or make them by scratch. The only ones I like are by scratch... Libby Pumpkin Pie recipe... it's the only one I ever use. Love it. Some pumpkin pies really taste horrible, or like cardboard. There is a big difference... once you find one that tastes good. Love banana nut bread. I make that at Christmas time... which, will be soon now.... I'm going to have to start walking.... so I can bake, and eat!..lol |

No Grace, didnt put them in the fridge, they usually dont last that long anyway with the grands coming and eating them too. Everybody loves donuts. But my son said, he had a filled one, but only one teaspoon of filling in there. They skimp. I made the pies from scratch, but not from a pumpkins insides, a can. My daughter in law made a cake: better than sex called. Its layerd with a nut crust, pudding and whipped cream with chocolate on top. Its to die for. Got to get that recipe. |

I have sampled much to many cookies while baking them for christmas. I have anough now to put into bags for christmas gifts. Not as many as in recent years. I am slowing down. But had to have some - christmas is not a holiday without homebaked cookies, and none of my children bakes, they just buy them. |

Hi Sylvia.... I'm on a break at work... and am eating Hershey's Dark Chocolate Kisses.... So with a chocolate "fix", I'll be feeling better pretty quick now...lol. I'm alone at work, finally. It's been pretty steady...but, we are open another hour yet. My 'lunch break' is about over. I'll be making my bananut bread in the morning... . would do it tonight but the aroma would not allow my son to get any sleep.... ...and he has to be at work at 4. Aren't I a considerate mom....lol. It would sure torture me if I had to try to sleep with that smell attacking my sweet tooth. I'll get at least one or two batches or cookies baked by the end of Christmas Day... and I consider the week till New Years still the "holidays", so I will do more baking then. I'm determined to use my cookie cutters this year. I've missed making my favorite "cut out" recipes. |

Cookies were all put into bags and given out on christmas eve. They are all gone, except mine, and i nibble on them. We had lots of sweets during the christmas days. Pies, jello with fruit, banana bread, caramel nuts, Popcorn wiht peanuts and caramel. pudding puffs, chocolate pretzels and chips with dip. I probably put on weight with all the foods. Did i make you hungry now. |

Bought a red velvet cake roll, just couldnt resist. It was half off, and originally it was 7 dollars. It has a cream cheese filling. Its ok, but not as good as i thought it would be. Thinking about fixing some more stollen for breakfasts. Just thinking about it. |

I did make that stollen, 3 loaves, but they didnt come out the way they used to be. I baked them a bit longer this morning. I think i put too much fruits and nuts in it and they are heavy. Last nite they tasted like they needed more baking, but it was 10 o clock, so i waited til this morning. Hope they are better or the birds and squirrels will have a good time eating that. Squirrels walk along my fence, so my son put a can of peanutbutter there, and 5 minutes later a squirrel was eating out of it. |

Ihad my morning coffee with 2 slices of that stollen. Too much flour in it i think. But it was ok to eat. |
