Christmas Morning Casserole is a tradition at my house. The nicest thing about this Christmas Morning Casserole is the fact that it is prepared the night before. No fuss and no mess to clean up in the morning, and if you are like me, you hae plenty to do in the morning to get dinner prepared, with no time to be cleaning up breakfast too.
For todays demonstration we will be making a 14”, 14 clip wreath using fresh specialty pine such as Fraiser Fir, White Pine and Arborvitae.

Candles are a lovely way to add the right atmosphere to any occasion. Candles also make wonderful, thoughtful gifts any time of the year. There is no denial that a “personal” touch expresses more sincerity for the receiver. Your creativity plus a few tips from us would make that special occasion or special person feel extra special because of your own custom gel candles.
In the history of the wreath, the word Wreath comes from the Old English word, Writhen, which means to writhe or twist. The history of the wreath notes that ancient Romans and Greeks used wreaths of evergreens to adorn the head of Olympic athletes, kings and heroes. Soon they began embellishing the wreaths and garlands with precious metals and jewels. This became the first crown. The word crown, or corona, itself means wreath or garland.
It is usually quite easy to come up with a main dish for your Christmas dinner and casserole recipes are everywhere, especially variations of the ever famous Green Been Casserole. Sometimes it is nice to have a little twist on a simple, classic side dish of vegetables.

It can be difficult for some to make meringue for a pie, just as it can be difficult to make a great pie pastry. The recipe I have included here really is a no fail recipe designed to be easy and practical for those who struggle at making meringue. Give it a try. What do you have to loose? If it doesn’t turn out, you can always go with the last resort and use a whipped topping instead.

This is an old fashioned recipe that was handed down to me in 1979 from my Grandmother. It is a bit different than most Peanut Butter Pie Recipes you will find.
Lard Pie Crust is a wonderfully flaky crust that reminds me of the days of eating my Aunt France’s pies at every family occasion. Pies were her specialty and she graciously taught me as a young girl to make her fabulous pie crusts. Now I pass on to you her very simple recipe and hope that you give yourself the time that you need to perfect the crust to your liking. Making Pie Crust is not so much in the recipe as it is in the technique.
Texas Sheet Cake is a wonderful textured cake that can be eaten like a brownie. It is moist and oh so chocolaty!! It can be made with or without the nuts in the topping and can be made in a cookie sheet or a 9X13 pan. Try this recipe and kiss traditional chocolate cake goodbye.

Snickerdoodles are an old fashioned cookie that have a sugar cinnamon coating and a sweet and buttery flavor. They are mostly noted by their crinkled, cinnamon and sugar coated top. Their great for the holidays or any time of the year.

This Sugar Cookie Recipe is one of the simplest recipes I think I have ever used. Sometimes it isn’t important to have lots of ingredients to make a recipe good. Plain and simple and oh so easy!!!
