Food is a gift from the heart and made with love. There’s no better gift than this.

Gifting home cooked meals, freshly baked bread, the garden’s harvest, preserved foods, homemade beverages and bake goods are the true universal language of love.

But somehow, a plate of baked goods brings extreme joy to many. Maybe it’s the memory of baking with their momma, or the smell of divine sweetness which engulf them with happiness.

With that said, bring someone joy this holiday season. Whether your baking a family recipe or trying a new one found here, just do it. They will thank you profoundly for it.

From my family to yours, I am sharing recipes from friends worldwide for you and your loved ones to enjoy!

Christmas Cookie Ideas

My mother’s love language was cooking, baking, and hosting. And as a military wife, this was needed. She fed hundreds of soldiers in the course of my father’s military career, and Christmas baking was a favorite time for her.

I have memories of my mother baking for days, and chocolate chip cookies were a specialty of hers. My mother baked for the family, however, she truly baked for service men and women who had no family nearby.

Sadly, the recipe has been misplaced, but I will never forget the smell of those cookies. So, for now, I’ll share these delicious Christmas cookie ideas.
