Holiday Baking Party With Jennifer/Fiddle Dee Dee

Posted on by Tami Reed

When my kids were very small, I used to LOVE to bake for them! I was that room mom that you would roll your eyes at because I would always come up with fancy treats for all the kids during all the holidays! I have since not even opened my oven to bake anything because my kids are not home to enjoy anything! Everyones schedule including me, is so busy nowadays but boy do I miss those special times lol.

My friend Jennifer/Fiddle Dee Dee who’s my blogger buddy and friend invited me over to bake some sweet treats with her last Friday and it was so much fun!
