{happy nom-nom-idays!}

nom nom… i just love this time of year. the holidays are also all about eating, right?! and sharing… 🙂

like this homemade peanut brittle from a friend’s mama in michigan and homemade caramels from my wonderful neighbours -50 yards away.

my goodness they are both SO AMAZING! i completely savoured each one, and still am. it’s that kind of treat – when someone takes time to make something so incredibly delicious like this and then shares it… THAT is the true meaning of the holidays… or, the nom-nom-idays. i think we should start making it more about food than “gifts”. afterall, i believe food is one of THE BEST gifts you can give… and receive 😉

nom nom…

and look how pretty, right?! i know you wanna reach through the screen and have some, teehehe. and i’m not even a huge peanut brittle fan, usually. but when my friend shared some of this with me he kept saying “no really, it’s the best ever.” and well – i asked him to leave the bag so i could fotograph it and blog about it sooooo, i guess you could say his mama converted me 😉

i’m grateful for so many things this year… including a new chance at life, plenty of new experiences, supportive and uplifting new friends, a bounty of delicious food and drink, and friends who share 🙂

happy nom-nomidays! xxoo
