My family has more traditions than you can shake a stick at but we mostly just love being together.   Part of my holidays of yesteryear was a cup of rich, delicious eggnog. But nowadays, unless …

~~posted by Jen Submitted by our pal Christine S, she made Nik’s pumpkin roll cake. ‘Tis the season! Lots of shopping, busy schedules, running hither and yon trying to get it all done.
