My Christmas Snack & Hot Chocolate Bar

I had a couple girlfriends over yesterday for a Christmas-y day of baking cookies and painting ornaments, so I decided to put together this Christmas snack & hot chocolate bar!

It had "magic tea cups" that changed color when you put the liquid in! This made me absolutely love tea parties. Over the years we have visited several different[...]

It's definitely my favorite time of year, and I always end up hosting some sort of get-together. This year, I put together a yummy and simple Christmas brunch using products I found at Smart & Final including their First Street brand items! Breakfast foods and baked goods are one of my favorite things (hello, carbs...), so I knew when I was asked to write a post abou[...]
