At Christmas I have to have ribbon candy and my mom's Kris Kringle cookies, but the must have holiday foods appear at Thanksgiving. We have a jello mold (a good, not scary one), cream cheese stuffed celery, and leek dip. Oh--we have leek dip at Thanksgiving too. And Easter, and birthdays, and...we love that leek dip!Katreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15819244112918562869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309470395783938361.post-44772376960407102432012-12-22T10:38:53.391-05:002012-12-22T10:38:53.391-05:00Welcome back, MJ!
