Well my sweet friends…turns out I’m really fond of palm sugar-carob chip cookies!

This has been the oddest holiday season we’ve had in a long time. Not bad, not sad…but different. Several traditions have had to be put aside and my usual elaborate planning has been tossed out the window. Maybe it’s because I was outta commission for 11 days after Thanksgiving.
