Hello Readers!
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas as much as I did today. I honestly love this time of year not just because of the presents, but because I get to spend time with all of my family doing what we do best... eating a whole lot of food, drinking lots and lots of wine, laughing and enjoying the love felt around the room.
Everyone and their families has different ways of celebrating this special holiday, some wake up and open their presents first thing in the morning while my family takes a different approach. Weeks before we all plan out what each person will be making to contribute to Christmas dinner and then on Christmas day we all gather at my aunts house for our grand feast. Once everyone has food in their stomachs, the fun begins as we all head over to the Christmas tree, take family photos and then line up one by one to receive our presents from the 'elves' (and by elves I mean my aunts dressed up in elf hats).
This year, I had the honor of being deemed the task of making dessert. I had the choice to make any dessert I wanted, so I chose cupcakes of course! Since the peppermint cupcakes were such a huge hit with my parents and my brothers I decided to make the same for Christmas but with different designs. It was so hard to choose which ones I should do but with the help of my brothers sharing old Christmas memories with me, the task became simpler. It took me most of the morning/early afternoon to come up with these but I got through it using fondant and a lot of patience!
