Some years, there just isn't time to make gingerbread cookies. No time to roll them out, decorate them, cut out a house, glue it together and so forth. This, my friends, is one of those years.
But, just because we are having a year like that, doesn't mean we can't enjoy the flavor or gingerbread, with its tangy bite and the delicious, creamy frosting that sets off the warm flavor so well! Gingerbread Loaf is perfect for that craving! It doesn't have too much molasses and the amount of spices is just perfect. The cream cheese frosting has orange zest, or you could use lemon. Citrus pairs so well with gingerbread!
I decided that this year my friends would receive a "flight" of sweet bread loaves from our family. They are quick to make and taste really good. They will be easy to present in a pretty way. The decorations are super easy to do and I can whip up the loaves in a short amount of time. This Gingerbread Loaf was my first choice. I baked my loaf in an 8 mini loaf pan. The recipe give directions for one regular loaf. So, just adjust the temperature as needed.

Funfetti is such a fun and festive choice for any occasion. My son and DIL had Funfetti cupcakes at their wedding reception! So, when I saw a bunch of posts about Funfetti Cookies online recently, and being the sprinkles lover that I am, I knew that I had to give them a try! They will add a festive addition to any Christmas cookie platter.
A couple of years ago, I shared a 3 ingredient cookie collection with you on this post. Cake mix cookies can be a life saver when you are in a hurry and need to take a plate of something somewhere. If you need some inspiration, be sure to check out that post to get some!
What makes these cookies even better is the addition of white chocolate Funfetti Chips! They have the same look as the cake mix, with the sprinkles in the chips! This is a good time of year to look for them in your local grocery store.

I hope that you enjoy them!
And now I have to get back to my baking!

Here at 3 Winks Design, we have published some E-Cookbooks that we are pretty proud of. They are a labor of love as we publish recipes that we have developed or that have been long time family favorites.
Back in August, we introduced and published our Jam in 3 Winks book with a bunch of delicious, tried and true recipes for jams and marmalades. It took us awhile, but we have recently published it in Kindle form on Facebook. Amazon makes it possible and very easy to purchase a Kindle version of books to give as gifts to others. Doing so can be a quick and easy last minute gift during a busy holiday season. But, sometimes you want to be able to give a gift wrapped and under the tree. E-books can fit the bill for that as well! Using our books as examples, here are some ideas for gift printing and giving printed e-books. Or, if you would prefer not to print the e-book, you can always gift it electronically and add the extra items to go with it as you announce your gift

This has been a very hectic couple of years for our family and as you may have noticed, the blog posts have been going up a little farther apart than normal. But, one of my favorite blog posts to write around this time of the year is when I find advent calendars that are awesome!
When my kids were little, they usually had about 2 or 3 advent calendars to count down until Christmas with. From the felt tree advent that they took turns adding the ornaments to, to the chocolate calendars that were necessary or it wouldn't have been Christmas without them, we have loved our advent calendars! I have found 4 calendars this year that I want to share with you. I hope you get a kick out of them!
The 2022 Advent Calendar FAMILY GAMES by The Purple Cow. 24 OF THE BEST EVER FAMILY GAMES IN ONE BOX . What a great way to have fun with your family all month long. Our family loves to play games together during the holidays and this calendar is a great way to get started with a game to play everyday!
The 2022 Advent Calendar SHOCKING SCIENCE by The Purple Cow. I picked this calendar for Alicia who loves science! No reason why you can't get some S.T.E.M. activity in as you count down to Christmas!
Timoo Nativity Advent Calendar 2022 . Because I am striving hard to keep Christ in Christmas this year more than ever, I am choosing this nativity advent. It is accompanied by a story to teach children about the birth of the Savior. The kids will love moving the pieces around throughout the season.
LEGO Harry Potter 2022 Advent Calendar. I don't know why Harry Potter seems Christmassy. I mean there are Christmas scenes in most of the books, plus snow and the book is "magical." So, for all of you Potter Heads out there who can't get enough Potter, this is for you! Lego also puts out Star Wars and Marvel Advent calendars as well!
Here is a list of the past Advent Calendars we have shared!
