I recently saw a recipe for Christmas Cracker Stackers (which someone told me was the best cookie they ever had BTW!!!!)…from the book Out Of The Box Holiday Baking by blogger Hayley Parker. This book is now on my list for all my fam and friends who love to bake, esp. easy baking, including my own daughter!!! Here is the summary…every recipe looks amazing…you have to check it out…..

I know I owe you a Home Goods re-cap. I thought I would do one focusing on Holiday decor. My Home Goods was full of items. Things do really go fast but they are replenishing everyday. I think I am going to have to go back next week!!! Everything was found at the Home Goods in Port Chester. This store seems to have the best selection, second to Westport!!! Happy Shopping…Let me know what you end up buying, I’d love to hear!!!
