Christmas day is fast approaching, and Santa’s helpers are out in full force. Running errands, sharing goodwill, crafting, baking, wrapping presents, and crushing their nice list.

For me the holiday season officially starts when the aroma of warm gingerbread fills the house, and calls everyone to the kitchen.
