Epiphany 2014 - The Three Kings

Today is officially Epiphany but it was celebrated yesterday at church. The 3 Kings finally made it to the manger scene.

Twelfth Night 2014 - Luminaries

I made luminaries especially for Twelfth Night. You can make these beauties by simply freezing water in a Bundt pan. Add tea lights and you're good to go.

Twelfth Night 2014 - Gingerbread Cookies

We had a very low key Twelfth Night this year. Dinner was very simple but I did bake gingerbread cookies. Don't be too impressed. These were bought from the store as pre-made and frozen dough. All I did was pop 'em in the oven. Regardless of who made them they smelled great while baking.
