Happy Holidays!

I haven't blogged in quite some time. I have been doing a lot of cooking and baking. I am working on knitting a red hat.

My fave sites for vegan recipes are theppk.com and veganyumyum.com. Check them out!

These are from theppk.com and they are awesome! They look like little snowballs!
