Yes, but this year's disappointed me. I look for one new recipe a year, and haven't found one yet. Of course, I'm dealing with a family full of allergies.

Have you tried Martha Stewart's website? My roommie makes cookies from there every year. Also, Topsecretrecipes.com has a cookie recipe now, they're recreations of commercial recipes.

gingerbread houses & men
cinnamon sugar cookies
cinnamon swirl bars
and those gooey cookies i mentioned earlier - in strawberry (with reg. cool whip) and chocolate (with chocolate cool whip)

Ugh I've been conned by the bf to make him a pumpkin pie a week since thanksgiving. Downside: I HATE PUMPKIN! especially the smell... The upside is that its super easy to make.

hehe the holiday thing I love the most is pecan pie! Does anyone else get this on Christmas? It sounds a little thanksgiving like, but I just LOVE pecan pie. I get a little upset after the holidays that noone makes those pies, but keylime pies tide me over.

We need to eat pie together. I heart both keylime and pecan pies so much! And I don't like pumpkin. Though I did discover that I love pumpkin ice cream which is weird.

hehe they made keylime Florida's pie!

The smell of pumpkin in the can is truly revolting. Yuck!

FYI, breeders suggest that dog owners give the constipated doggie pumpkin, and I actually have a recipe for pumpkin dog biscuits. That's one of the reasons it's a good ending to a big meal!

I may try those gooey cookies. I'm into quick & easy cooking!
