Needed to feel my grandma with me yesterday, so I made her famous cherry cake. I miss her. Isn’t it funny how recipes can make us feel like people who have passed are right in the room with us?

This cake is so delish I can’t even tell you. (And, I can’t share the recipe, either. Family secret!)
Every year I make a plate of hard boiled eggs, if only to be able to use my kitchy egg plate.

These are both really awful pictures of these items. I never seen to remember to take good ones.
A few of my cousins and I do a homemade ornament exchange, and this year I made one (with the help of my hubby) that just made me giggle:

Very often I do crafy ornaments but this year I went goofy. Don’t you love that Die Hard is considered a Christmas movie? It is to me!
I found a funny Christmas tree headband that jingled:

And of course, we picked up a Starbucks ornament to add to the tree.

I hope your Christmas was lovely and sweet.
