Remember the Fall FashIN event I attended back in August?

Fall FashIN

Not only was it fun, but I met some amazing women!

One of these great ladies messaged me back in September asking if I would contribute to a holiday e-cookbook for one of her clients.

She did not need to go any further…the answer was a resounding YES!  Not only do I love cooking, baking, and experimenting in the kitchen but the holidays are my absolute favorite time of year.  I couldn’t wait to pull out my favorite family recipe to include in the book.

The book is part of the readers.com holiday guide.

The guide includes tips to:

  • devour (that’s where the cookbook is!)
  • decorate (tons of DIY holiday crafting here)
  • read (best selling books of 2013)
  • resolve (new year’s resolution tips from bloggers around the web)

As a healthy lifestyle blogger, many people think that I never indulge in a special treat or decadent meal.  In reality, baking sweet treats is one of my favorite things to do and I actually LOVE dessert in moderation…especially around the holidays.  Baking Christmas and holiday cookies is no small task in my family, and it is something that we all look forward to doing together.  Some of my fondest memories of growing up are baking with my family around the holidays.
