We have been very busy over the last few weeks... I helped organize and run the preschool St. Nick Night- which turned out amazing!! Families from the preschool came for a night of caroling, the symbols of Christmas and a delicious pasta dinner with homemade desserts. Gianna had her dance recital, she shined bright!! We hosted a friends holiday get together and a playgroup party. We also hosted one for Tom's co-workers where I made this adorable garlic knot wreath. Super easy and feeds a lot of people. I added a few tomatoes and basil leaves to make it pop. Last year I made a garlic knot tree ( I filled the bottom with sauce, but never got a picture because it went so fast!)- both were big hits!!
I also made these delicious puff pastry trees- one had Nutella and one had Oreo Cookie Spread inside... super delicious and easy to make!! Defrost puff pastry, cut a large triangle, and spread with your choice of delicious spread, our favorites are Nutella and Oreo Cookie so we stuck with those.

I'm off to sleep for now, but wait until you see the next post- great holiday gift in the making... goodnight!!
