Since Farmer's Wife has decided to take a little break as she prepares for a country Christmas (at least, I assume that's what she is doing!), I thought it would be fun to join a blog hop and offer a little Christmas cheer of my own, a charm pack of "Jovial" by Basic Grey.
So if you are feeling jovial, let me know what your favorite holiday treat is. A special cookie made with an old family recipe? Fudge? Hot spiced cider? Do tell. The Random Number Generator elf will choose a winner on December 16 so you have plenty of time to
And don't forget to join the hop for a chance at some other festive treats.
ETA: Thanks for playing, everyone! Comments are now closed.

My fave holiday treat is a glass of bucks fizz (champagne and orange juice) on Christmas morning with my breakfast, it's a little tradition hubbie and I have!
To me, the holidays mean family and friends- lot's a of parties and laughter in the upcoming weeks!
My mothers cookies and light fruit cake :D
My favorite holiday treat is Ribbon candy or toy candy. It is locally made here in Nova Scotia and it SCREAMS Christmas. In fact, we have to get some for my mother every year!
This is the website incase you want a visual as to what I am talking about....

Thanks.
We have several treats at Christmas time - toffee bars as a sweet, breakfast casserole on Christmas morning, and we all all my daughter-in-law from Hong Kong make potstickers.
Our favorite treat is a butter crumb coffee cake. We look forward to it Christmas morning.
sitting very quietly in the late afternoon, before time to begin dinner preparations, and enjoying a cup of coffee topped with whipped cream and peppermint candy sprinkles
I live in the south and my favorite treat is Pecan Pralines. They make a nice stocking stuffer.
My favorite Christmas treat is a cookie that my grandma made. It is still a favorite among my mother and all my siblings and our families. I have the inherited recipe...hehe.
I will be indulging in some Egg Nog...Love my Mom's homemade...
Mom's Sugar Cookies! They're a pain to make and a pain to frost but oh so good.
it's not a sweet treat, but my grandmother-in-love's pierogi are the treat my whole family looks forward to on Christmas!
My favorite thing to do is have a big Christmas breakfast qith my family and friends who don't have loved ones in town. It is the best morning ever!
German peppernut cookies. thanks for the chance!
It's the one time of year that I make fudge - yummmmmm! Thanks for the opportunity to enter your great giveaway!
Two things I do every Christmas without fail are making fresh homemade pasta & shortbread. Love the shortbread so much, but I only make it at Christmas...
Coffee cake on Christmas morning :)
As a child I remember making/stealing different candies and other goodies with my mom. I have certain things I have to make each year, even if it is just for my family and I have to put it in the freezer for the next 6 months until it is gone. Christmas to me is truly celebrating the birth of Jesus.
Since marrying into a long line of Swedes, I have grown to love the homemade potato sausage every Christmas. My favorite cookie is Raspberry Shortbread Dreams. Yum!

Jovial...I don't even know what it looks like, but I love everything basic Grey, so I'm sure I'd love this too!
My favorite holiday treat is my mom's homemade toffee. I don't even know how to make it and I have it maybe every 5 years if I'm lucky, since I rarely see my mom on Christmas. the last time I had some I asked her for the recipe and she said, "Oh you don't want to make it. It's very hard and it took me 3 batches before I got this one right this time." So I said forget it! But it's so yummy; toffee on the bottom, dark chocolate spread over the top, and ground almonds (I think) sprinkled over the top. I may have to call her and get the recipe anyway. If you want it, let me know!
Each year I have certain recipes that have been passed down through the years and must be made - my grandmother's date cookies and my great aunt's toffee are the best!!!!
I love my mom's homemade sugar cookies!
Grandma's chocolate candy cookies! Yummy!
Mmmm, so many special treats at this time of year! Egg nog, fruitcake, peppermint bark, gingerbread cookies! I make an American version of Plum Pudding; it's a gingerbread cake with cranberries, served with a yummy sauce made of butter, cream, sugar, and vanilla! Scrumptious, and I'm sworn to secrecy about the recipe!
I lke the Peppermint Bark. And I LOVE wrapping gifts!!!
My favorite holiday recipe would have to be peanut butter marshmellow fudge. Sadly, I never make it anymore because the calorie content is outrageous, but it's a happy remembrance of Christmas to our adult children. Thanks for the chance to win your generous giveaway. Love me some fabric!
My favourite Christmas treat would have to be our Boxing Day dinner - cold turkey, chips and pickles...yummy! It's my favourite meal of the year!
I AM feeling Jovial. My favorite holiday treat has to be my grandmother's Danish Oatmeal cookie. So yummy. Darn it, now I will have to make them because I'm thinking about them.
Dark chocolate truffles filled flavoured with raspberry, coffee, or rum :)
ourbusylittlebunch(at)hotmail(dot)com
I have none and definitely need Christmas fabric!!
My favourite treat is mulled wine, yummy! :) Although I could be tempted by Sarah's bucks fizz!
Haha, if I had a secret recipe, I would give it to you! Fave treat is anything pumpkin, chocolate, or cheesecake flavored!
My favourite is buttermilk cookies. They're a little cakier than your average cookie, they come with icing, and nobody who tries them can just have one. Mmmmm.
My favorite is english toffee-it's also the favorite of everyone I make it for.
My favorite holiday treat is my homemade cranberry bread. My recipe calls for mayonnaise & boy is it moist! Love it. Oh, and my fudge too.
My favorite holiday treat would have to be the Power Cookies my sister-in-law makes practically every year!
Thank you for a chance to win. :-)
It's gotta be shortbread...every time.
Bread sauce! (and bubble and squeak on boxing day).
My favorite treat is marzipan cookies. Yum!
My favorite treat is cookie cut-out cookies!
I love spice tea and spiced punch! Oddly enough, I haven't made any yet this year. :/
I always make the candy cane cookie recipe from the Betty Crocker cookbook! It is what my mother always made and it brings back wonderful memories : )
My favorite christmas treat is Almond Bark Candy. It is just almond bark, peanuts, peanut butter, rice krispies and marshmallowsl mixed together. Nothing really christmasy except that my family always makes it at christmas time.
Mince pies and mulled wine!
Does apple cider count? Mmm...yum!
Chocolate. And Almond Stick. A dutch treat. Yum, yum!
My maternal Gramma's Cream Cheese Pie. Never have been able to find one to equal the ones she made and she took her recipie to the grave. That pie meant Thanksgiving and Christmas.

My Mom's shortbread cookies. Just at Christmas. Just my Mom's. Mmmm ... mmmm ... mmmmmmmm ...
Lovely giveaway, Cindy! My favourite holiday treat is chocolate peanut butter balls. Yum, yum! I'll be sharing the secret recipe on my blog next week. :) thanks for the giveaway! I posted mine today too.
I allow myself one eggnog latte each year (Yup, already had it!) and my favorite treat are my aunt's Christmas Wreaths made from corn flakes and corn syrup (sounds, healthy, huh?!). Thankfully I don't have them every year, but my second fave is pumpkin pie, and I do have that annually!!
My favorite Christmas treat is Spiced Pecans!
I love plain and simple shortbread cookies. Just butter, sugar, and flour. Doesn't get any better...unless of course I put melted chocolate on top!
Shortbread and mince pies are favorites in our house! And we make a yummy slice called White Christmas which is kept in the fridge during a long hot Australian summer!
A favorite treat is Bacon Buns!! Yummy!
Eggnog is a special treat at Christmas. Kathie L in Allentown
My 4 sons and husband would say Apricot Kolache, hands down, but they are a pain to make so I cheat by making a double batch of Peanut Blossoms, which are their second favorite. I used to make 12-15 different cookies but now things have changed and everyone is always on a diet!
Peppernuts, the crispy ones with anise and other spices dunked in a little coffee or milk!
Christmas treat? My hands-down favourite is my mum's Chocolate Hazelnut Cherry Rum Truffles, which are cute, addictive, and so so delicious!
(They're also really rather complicated to make, which is why they're only a Christmas treat.)
Peppernuts - which aren't really nuts at all. My grandmother used to make them. They are really hard little cookie/biscuits - very hard to explain, but about the size of butter mints, if that makes sense. I may just have to try my hand at making them and post the recipe on my blog... eventually.
I really love homemade shortbread, my Mum makes some for Christmas every year. I also LOVE plum pudding & can always find room for seconds, my family jokes that as a non-drinker, it's the alcohol hit that does it for me. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love my Mom's Oatmeal Shortbread cookies-yummy.
When I was a kid we used to make peanut brittle. Haven't done it in years, but every time I see any, I think of Christmas.
We have these pumpkin cakes here in Portugal that are defenitely my favourites!
Home made sugar cookies...large ones! I make them in the shape of a star and eat the points first!
Love having pavlova on Xmas day especially my mum's one. Unfortunately my kids don't like it and we are not having xmas with my mum so I miss out again.
My favorite is gingerbread!
I love the peanut butter cookies with Hershey's kisses in the middle.
Grandmas recipe of Gingerbread cookies, it's THE BEST! =)
Thanks for the chance to win!
We always enjoy hot spiced cider on Christmas Eve after church.
Everyone, including me, loves my Buckeyes. A peanut butter ball dipped in chocolate. I only make them at Christmas cause they are so time consuming to make.
Making and eating Christmas cookies of all kinds!
My grandmother's chocolate fudge... hands down a winner every time.
We have a family cookie recipe called Spice Cookies. So good! Would love that charm pack of Jovial - I have a great pattern to use for a Christmas charm pack.

English Toffee and mint truffles are my most guilty Christmas pleasures. Thanks for the giveaway.
First is my DD's birthday and THEN Christmas...so it's party central around here! I USED to enjoy baking cookies- Christmas in my house growing up meant millions of cookies made- but my favorite was Oatmeal raisin. But we went dairy free this year and I still haven't mastered a yummy oatmeal yet....although I did make a TREMENDOUS Orange chocolate chunck cake with chocolate ganache icing that was dairy free today...I think I have a new favorite!
I always bake Greek shortbread crescents for Xmas. Nice with coffe, even better with a nice glass of wine! :)
Merry Xmas from Sandy. :)

My favorite holiday treat is oatmeal cookies by my mom!
Mulled wine of course!
My favorite treat is chocolate covered pretzels with sprinkles on top. :) SO easy to make too
*Sigh* I love Christmas treats. My mom's marshmallow-creme fudge. The Crispix-kind-of "Puppy Chow" that my grandmother made. My recent favorite ... pretzel-candy made with Rolos OR Andes mints melted on top, with a Christmas m&m on top ...
Love fudge and hot apple cider as well. We sit the apple cider and cinnamon sticks on top of the wood stove so it stays hot and makes the house smell ohhh so good! Thanks for the opportunity to enter.
Marshmallow Creme Fudge is probably the treat I love that has the most Christmas memories. Or is it Chocolate Creams (little chocolate dipped candies)? Or.....I can't decide.
I love anything that's pepperminty!
Mulled wine! The smell of it... It is the only way I can actually drink red wine!
Oh I love lots of holiday treats, but my favorite has to be my grandmother's fudge. The recipe takes forever, and it never turns out as perfect as hers used to be, but it is so good!
Hmm, favorite holiday treat? Very hard to decide. While I love anything milk chocolate, I have to say my favorite holiday treat is the roasted turkey.
Every year I make Peanut Blossoms (recipe is on the back of the Chipits Mini Kisses package) - I roll each cookie in red or green sugar before baking, just to make them extra festive :)
PEOPLE KINDA MAKE FUN OF FRUITCAKE! OUR FAMILY LOVES IT+IT SPEAKS OF CHRISTMAS TO US!
THANKS SO FOR SHARING!

My favorite is my mother in law's butter cookies. We have so much history there of the kids helping make the cut out cookies..pictures of them adding sprinkles when they are so small they could barely hold the little jar..of my daughter wearing her grandmother's apron from when she was a little girl while she did it : )

One secret recipe coming up: Snicker Salad, aka Superior Candy Apple Salad (1/2 the apples, twice the Snickers of the original)
12 reg sized Snickers candy bars, chopped
3-4 tart apples such as Granny Smith,
peeled, cored chopped
1 block of cream cheese, softened
1 jar marshmallow creme - I use the bigger jar, but have used the smaller one when I couldn't find a big one
1 large container Cool Whip, thawed. Again in a pinch you can use the smaller container.
Beat together cream cheese, marshmallow cream, and cool whip. Pour over apples and snickers and fold in, mixing till all covered and smooth. You can add maraschino cherries if you want.
Don't make too far ahead of time if serving guests. The candy bars will gradually melt into the dressing. It's every bit as good that way, but not as pretty. This stuff NEVER gets thrown away -- it's eaten to the last spoonful.
Try it, you'll like it! :^)
My favorite holiday treat is my sisters snickers cheesecake!
Thank you for the chance to win!

Mincemeat pie!! We make our own mincemeat and save it just for Christmas pies!
I make peanut butter fudge every year and peanut butter cookies. The fudge is so easy a child could make it. If you want the recipe e-mail me and I can give it to you. Thank you for a chance to win. Happy Holiday to You and Yours.
