Eggnog Fudge – rich and creamy eggnog fudge with pecans. The perfect sweet treat for your holiday cookie tins!
Okay, I think this is the last Christmas treat I’ll be sharing this year.
The kids last day of school is today and, you guys, it’s almost impossibe to find time for a blog post when they’re home. Also, it’s Christmas break! You’re supposed to be building gingerbread houses, watching the same Christmas movies over and over, and going to see the lights!
Oh my gosh, speaking of lights! The lake by our house does a huge lightshow every year and we went at least 2 times last year and everyone loved it. So I had the brilliant idea to go this past Saturday.
Don’t go on a Saturday.
The Jeep had plenty of gas when we got there and then we spent an hour in line. I spent the entire 5 1/2 miles of lights panicking because the Jeep just starts flashing “LO FUEL” at a certain point instead of telling me exactly how many miles I have left.
We also did gingerbread houses this past weekend and I lost both the Instagram and Facebook poll about whether mine or BF’s house was cuter.
