Cooking for the Holidays
by Robin Nobles
At this time of year, even if youŽre a "non-Betty Crocker" like
me, you often break out the cookbooks and create some holiday
goodies or special recipes to celebrate the holiday season.
So, how do these "goodies" sound to you: Candy Cane Cocoa, Bacon
Chestnuts, Banana Nut Bread Baked in a Jar, or White Chocolate
and Cranberry Cookies? At Christmas Recipes, youŽll find
delicious sounding recipes in a variety of categories, such as
Appetizers, Breakfast Dishes, and Christmas Food Gifts.

Visit SantaŽs Net for Christmas recipes from around the world.
Try Christmas Chocolate Logs from France, Ginger Bread from
Germany, or Holiday Ham Balls from Sweden.

HereŽs something different: a Shrimp Christmas Tree! Or, what
about Old Fashioned Bread Stuffing, or Jingle Bell Fudge? At
Christmas-on-the-Net, youŽll find a large assortment of holiday
recipes, including recipes for using leftover turkey.

How about celebrating the twelve days of Christmas with baked
goodies like Cocktail Cheese Biscuits or Frozen Peppermint
Cheesecake? Saint-Nick.com offers the 12 Tastes of Christmas that
your family is certain to appreciate.

Even your dog needs goodies for Christmas, and Merry-
Christmas.com is happy to oblige. Besides the recipe for Good Dog
Goodies, though, youŽll also find a recipe for Christmas Divinity
thatŽs been "handed down through the generations," Eggnog Bread,
Christmas Sour Cream Potato Salad, and a Gravy Tip that will help
you "make gravy just like grandma."
