mmmm......lasagna sounds really good!!!
that's a beautiful cake!
i had extra of my carob-cream cheese frosting. i'll be using it to frost some oatmeal peanut butter cookies that i'll bake tomorrow. i made an extra batch of cookie dough a few weeks ago, and froze part of it in a flat disc and the rest in dough balls. i've got the cookie dough in the fridge thawing now, so it'll be quick and easy to pop a pan of cookies in to bake tomorrow.

Thanks everyone! Yes Jen, I did dip the knife in a mug of hot water to try & smooth the frosting.

that's a beautiful cake!and a homemade caramel sea salt frosting!!!may i ask -- how did you get your frosting so smooth on your cake? did you dip the knife you use to frost in water, to smooth the frosting?

I should've taken a picture of it when we sliced into it last night. All the layers were pretty.
Oh, & my mom's lasagna was good as usual, too. My mom made a smaller pan just for me w/ turkey instead of beef, because I haven't eaten beef or pork in over 20 yrs. so I got to take the rest home with me!

We had a horrible dessert for Christmas. Marie Calendar's Turtle Pie.
I have the biggest sweet tooth, ever but it was nasty. I think we let it thaw too long. It was just a big soupy mess.
However, my mom made chocolate cheesecake bites for the first time and they were amazing.

@Angels mommy Wow, that's beautiful!
No specific dessert though at some point I'll probably get into the Christmas cookies and dark chocolate we have here.
Christmas cookies and dark chocolate......mmmmm!!!
Oh, oh, oh!I forgot I had some delicious homemade lemon drop cookies that someone gave us last night.
When I found those, I had dessert after breakfast!
oh my! homemade lemon drop cookies!

Christmas Oreos!!!
Not being much of a baker these days, I'll be enjoying some Christmas Oreos for desert. Everyone else's treats sound amazing.
No desserts. I'm not big on sweets.
Well, actually that was kind of a joke because everyone else had made these wonderful deserts and I was just having mass-produced cookies. However, you're absolutely right that the ones I had for desert had red filling so maybe I wasn't so far off the mark.
Christmas Oreos!!!i had to look them up online, to see what was done to make them Christmas-y. red filling......very pretty!!!
From what I can see, that cake sure looks good! I'd take a hunk of it any time! Yum!i'm totally sure that your sticky buns and Christmas cookies are awesome!!!
ahhh, lovely! a homemade peanut butter swirl cheesecake, and the white coconut layer cake.if i remember correctly, the white coconut layer cake has lemon curd between the layers...?
No lemon curd this year. Since we had to pick the cake up on Saturday and our dinner wasn't until Monday, we were afraid the heaviness of the curd would break the cake apart in the fridge. But I did ask for extra coconut, it was still decadent and the hit of our dinner (as far as my sister and I were concerned anyway).

that's too bad that the Marie Calendar's Turtle Pie didn't turn out good.

maybe some fruit? or a little ice cream?
Nah. I prefer vegetables to fruit for the most part. I do like ice cream but usually buy it more for DD than myself. I have to really be in the mood for it and it has to be really good quality. Same with chocolate. I only like high quality imported dark chocolate. I'm far more into the savory than the sweet. Bread is my weakness- in all it's magical forms. I'll take a soft pretzel with a bit of cheese over cake or cookies any day.

my opinion is that there's absolutely nothing wrong with store bought desserts.

that red filling must have looked so pretty too!
