Holiday cooking

[scarlettina]

Every year, I make an apple-crusted sweet potato casserole (actually it's an apple-crusted yam casserole) for the holidays. This year, I made peanut butter blossoms as well. I love these cookies and have had the recipe for years, but never made it until yesterday. I just got it into my head to make cookies. They turned out to be as delicious as I remembered. So I'll be sharing cookies as well as the casserole today and tomorrow.

I don't have a lot of confidence about myself as a cook. This year that has changed somewhat. I'm pleased and practicing.

Here are pix of the holiday goods:
