If you are anything like us, you have a ton of left over candy cane's after the holidays have passed.  Well, heck we go searching for more once everything goes on clearance.  Last year we scored big and we have been able to enjoy candy cane treats all year (and next year too). It should come as no surprise that homemade Candy Cane Ice Cream was on the list of peppermint things to make!  What did come as a surprise was how creamy and delicious this ice cream was.  Chad and Munchkin went crazy over this ice cream.  I am surprised it lasted long enough to take a picture.  Enjoy!  With love from our kitchen table to yours!

Candied nuts make for the perfect homemade holiday gift, awesome potluck dish and amazing party munchables.   I absolutely love giving homemade gifts at Christmas. It is a tradition in my house. It is like giving a part of yourself and I can not think of a better way to celebrate the season. A few year back it seemed like most of the people on our Christmas list were dealing with some type of food issue. So, I diversified from my sesuai ketentuand treats of pecan bars, brownies, cookies and such. That is the year I started making different varieties of candied nuts to give. In addition to the kegemaranes. I started with honey ginger almonds (which are spectacular) and eventually worked my way to these Crockpot Cinnamon Roasted Almonds. They were a huge hit and I had a lot of reques...
