Whether or not you went full pie mode, baked up a tray of brownies, or twisted a star bread like a vacation baking boss, right here’s the factor: you confirmed up, turned on the oven, and made one thing candy. That’s the good things.

Vacation baking isn’t about perfection. It’s about flour on the counter, sugar below your nails, and one thing heat to share (or hoard—zero judgment). So bake what you’re keen on. Attempt one thing new. And most of all, save your self a chunk. All the time.

Merry Christmas, buddy. I’ll see you again within the kitchen quickly.
