I gain weight just looking at the tasty recipes. Good choices for the holidays.
Thank you.
They look wonderful! You have so many interesting recipes. I am always looking for something different. I am definitely making the bread pudding. My son loves eggnog.
I'm just stopping by different type of blogs and thought id say hello folks. So greetings from an Amish community in Pennsylvania, and wishing everyone a merry Christmas and a healthy and happy new year. Richard from Amish Stories
Marguerite, First I thought there would be only 2 desserts. Then I kept scrolling down the page and got very sad that I would not be at your house for the holidays! These are presents-enough, what a beautiful dessert menu :)
Just been reading about E = MC squared, aka Einstein, and imagining all that rest energy in your creations LOL. Is there a spare place at your table LOL. Yummy.
Marguerite, your bread pudding with cherry sauce is on my absolutely must make list. actually i'm going to pin in on my Pintecrest foodie board. this way i will keep reminding myself of it. Hope your Christmas season has been delightful!!!! You will absolutely love your iPad!!!

What a festive new banner and desserts, they look deeee-licious.
those all look yummy and I don't even like sweets that much.
I'm with The Wild Magnolia: getting fatter the longer I stare at the photos & ingredients. I notice you never print the calorie count. We'd probably all faint.
I like the look & ingredients of that cheesecake. I just may try it as I'm tired of pumpkin, mince & pecan.
I want them all but I will start with the banana pudding pie... that crust and filling is awesome and I just got this thing 'bout a whipped top... hope you have a great weekend..
It's hard to pick just one to make!! But I'm leaning towards that fudge cake...
Marguerite, thanks to you and your fabulous blog, I am always inspired when I come here.
Happy Holidays, dear friend.
wm- lol But they are totally worth the calories, cher, and you can always dance them off! Thanks for stopping by!

Eddie- You are such a hoot! lol There is always a spare place at my table for you, cher! Just hop on a plane! lol
