i love peppermint. loveit, loveit, loveit! it makes everything better. and christmas(ie).
here's why you should love peppermint too:
- it provides relief from migraine headaches
- it can soothe a nagging cough or scratchy throat
- it's calming and energizing at the same time!
- for those who are trying to quit smoking - pop a peppermint - it curbs the cravings
- it relieves an upset stomach
- it's super yummy (this could have been my only reason)
Pretty pictures. Will you be posting the recipe for those yummy sandwich cookies coated in crushed candy canes??? They look delicious!
ReplyDeletenicole - although pretty, the cookies weren't great. really, the only thing that made them better was the candy canes. the original recipe can be found here: http://www.marthastewart.com/recipe/holiday-chocolate-sandwich-cookies?backto=true&backtourl=/photogallery/christmas-cookies-for-chocoholics#slide_16
ReplyDeletethe chocolate cookie was just too dry. i think the same idea can be applied to a softer cookie recipe - if you try it out let me know!
i put candy canes in fudge. it's delicious!
