I love lighting candles year round...but it's especially nice during the holidays. My mother in law gave me some lovely candle stick holders with Yankee sampler Red Berry & Cedar candles to burn and the scent is heavenly!
Mini marshmallows in hot cocoa....doesn't get much better....except maybe some shaved chocolate on top of that!
Love to bake and try new recipes each year...can't wait to have some time off to bake and try new recipes! I love listening to Christmas music and making a day of it!
My son loves peanut brittle. I just got my mittens on a recipe by Paula Deen for English Toffee which in my sons mind, will beat out the peanut brittle!
Pretzel rods, dipped in melted white chocolate and decorated. So easy and so cute in the decorative cellophane bags. Nice little gifts to put on co-workers desks just because, or delivery to random people who are nice!
What traditions to you have each year?

Wow, you are in Cozy time mode!!
I am loving the idea of the pretzel rods to give to co-workers. It is a perfect idea.
I am with you, I will spend a Saturday or two baking with the Christmas music in the background. Unfortunately that is the only time of year my Kitchen-Aid mixer gets used and my SH paid a small fortune for it a few years ago. That was my Christmas present.
Well, that is how it is going to be until I retire. Darn that pesky job that gets in the way of our fun! LOL
