Cranberry Walnut Truffles
The next treat I made for my work's holiday luncheon were these cranberry walnut truffles. They were very simple to make - only a few ingredients - and delicious.

Maple Thumbprints
My friend gave me a big jar of maple syrup from Vermont and I've been looking for a way to highlight it. I decided to use some of it in these thumbprint cookies and I'm so glad I did.

My kids were doing so well and eating the bananas I've been buying for the last month ... except last week.
