I personally do not make New Year’s resolutions. I used to but I never used to stick with them, so I decided to give them up. I understand why people do, however. It is the beginning of a new year, so it is a chance for a fresh start. That is how I see every …
Christmas is such a great time for baking (and eating!) because there are so many delicious recipes and very good reasons to try them.
