Hello friends! I just can't believe Christmas is in two days!! Time just seems to slip away faster and faster as the years go by. Please tell me, it's not just me that feels this way! I wanted to take the time now to wish you all the
Merriest Christmas, 'cause come Christmas day, we will be at our church's traditional Midnight mass, something I look forward to each year, we will go to sleep and wake to find those presents under the tree that Santa left. We will load up the car with gifts and goodies and head off to enjoy the most wonderful day of the year with our family!

There will be kissing(and pinching!!) of babies and gifts and games for the kids. We are expected to have a white Christmas, here this year too! Something, in my book that just makes Christmas all the
more magical! I can hardly contain my excitement! Isn't this the very best time of year?

I hope your day is filled with peace, hope, joy and laughter. With family and friends and good food. I hope all your Christmas wishes come true!
Merry Christmas, friends!

I see you have a recipe for Moscardidi, I have been looking for one that does NOT have chocolate for about 10 years. My Nonnie made them for us everytime ahe came to see us. Do you think that your Mother in Law would mind if you shared her recipe with me? I would love to see if these are the ones I rmember from my childhood. Thank you so much
