Oh dear ... I am so wanting some of these cookies and candy! Can I be on your mailing lists?
I will make pumpkin bread, banana bread, fudge, chocolate walnut and sugar cookies for sure. I did see a recipe for snickerdoodles that sounded good with a caramel baked into the center I might try. I love spice anything. Oh and cherry jelly made from my cherries this year off my tree.
Once I start baking/cooking, it seems it never stops until after new years day. I did Thanksgiving dinner for everyone this year that came out perfectly on everything. A real treat to cook when that happens.

It's too soon to bake the dinner rolls and Cinnamon buns yet...
Our village's Santa Claus Parade is this afternoon and I need some baking for after the parade. BTW this is the first year DH has had the Christmas lights up before the parade in a great many years.
Anyone else doing Christmas baking?

Is this anything like the carrot pudding you make? I'd love to see your recipe sometime in the future when you are not busy with holiday baking.

Hi wildyard
My mom's carrot pudding was shredded carrots and potatoes ... my favourite carrot pudding is carrots and apples. And I'm lazy and also only DH & I like it so I steam it in a casserole or loaf pan and serve it from there.
These are the two recipes I use. I serve it with Butterscotch Sauce. My dear MIL used to let the grandkids eat the sauce by the bowl but my mom insisted we had to have a bit of pudding with the sauce.
