    Good morning, Jenna! The December paint bucket sounds delicious. Yum, a cinnamon roll casserole sounds gooey and amazing. You had so many wonderful recipes from November. I can’t believe tomorrow is December 1st. Merry Thursday 🎄

    December certainly kicks off all of the holiday excitement! I helped decorate our lobby today for the holidays. We put up and decorated a large (not real) tree and a table of Hanukkah decorations. Your round up of ideas will come in handy for the holiday parties and get to gethers. Thanx.

    Oh my Jenna. Everything looks so very good! I had to pin that sausage using pizza dough. YUM! Easy appetizer for sure. I just so happen to have a fresh bath of venison sausage made too! Hugs and blessings to you. Cindy

    The December paint bucket list sounds amazing Jenna! December is definitely the time of year when food and entertainment are on everyone’s mind and so it is great to have this wonderful arsenal of recipes. I must must try that hoisin pork tenderloin – I know I’ve pinned it several times lol. The cinnamon bun casserole sounds fabulous. Thanks for sharing and let the merriment begin!
