My precious little Mama and I used to make goodie trays every year at Christmas to give to the Drs we worked with as well as friends and neighbors. We usually gave away around 25 trays every year. We included a homemade cheese ball in the middle of the tray and surrounded it with at least 6-8 different kinds of cookies and candies and we also included a couple sleeves of crackers for the cheese ball in. I carried the tradition on for several years after she passed away until I just wasn’t able to do it anymore. A lot of people don’t realize not only the amount of time it takes to make all these things as well as the expense. We enjoyed going around passing them out as much as we did making everything. Oh how I miss my little Mama and spending time with her n the kitchen during the holidays.💗

[@janetcain1753]

Yum !!! I’m definitely making some of those

[@annfoehner4240]

Everything looks delicious. The Thumb print cookie if you do a different jelly do you still use the Almond extract or do you change it to vanilla? I'd love to print these out instead of writing them down longhand. Great recipes. I have a few I'd like to add to my trays. Thanks for sharing.

[@Summertime65]

Quick question. Can all these goodies be frozen? If so, I will make them this week and freeze until my guests arrive for Christmas. Love your videos!!!

[@kingskid8121]

Pretty and looks so yummy!! I enjoy eating baked goods but I do not do much baking myself... a lot of work for the return. lol. :)

[@annajohnson6532]

Yummy 😊

[@elizabethcallihan9971]

I just ordered from Blueland!

[@ACharmingAbode]

I hope you enjoy them as much as I have!! 😊

[@karenadams138]

Yum Leslie!...Will be trying some of these! And!!....I MUST tell you that I made your corn casserole ( I doubled it) for Thanksgiving and everyone was raving about it!!!. So easy, so delicious and feeds a ton of people. Thanks so much for all your wonderful recipes!!! ❤😊

[@ACharmingAbode]

That’s awesome 👏 Thank you!

[@jandaermold3406]

Nice treat display 👌...I maybe have to try the reindeer poop!

[@kimberlyfake9127]

Yum!

[@queenmarynovelwriter5397]

I miss doing a lot of baking like that, it's fun to watch.

[@frangoodrich8243]

they look so yummy Im in Canada and my walmart does not carry the almond bark, white or chocolate. What should i use instead? And thank you for another wonderful tutorial. Your the best !!!

[@lizforstmeier1617]

Love your recipes! Thanks for sharing. Also, where did you get that cute quilted top? Is it a sweatshirt? Thanks!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Thanks! I got it several years ago! It’s a quilted sweat shirt!

[@AngelMarie1993]

Any suggestions for making the crock pot candy nut free? A replacement for the nuts?

[@ACharmingAbode]

I’ve never personally tried this but what about pretzels?

[@cecwintonyk8228]

Great looking treats. For once I am kind of glad that I don't have access to some of those ingredients here in Toronto. Actually my hips are saying thank goodness.🤣🤣🤣

[@barbsams7774]

I’m going to change up this year and copy you!

[@reggie9334]

❤❤❤

[@bethneel6749]

Hi Leslie, love your videos! Can you give me a link on Amazon for the black gloves you wore for prepping the cookies? Thanks so much!

[@ACharmingAbode]

Oh I forgot to link those! Sorry! Here’s the link! amzn.to/49iBmTv

[@bethneel6749]

@ no worries, have a blessed Christmas! ❤️

[@susanbroyles1191]

Should have done the toilet ad with the reindeer poop😂

[@ACharmingAbode]

@@susanbroyles1191 😂😂😂

[@pampriddy7659]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@RenefromOntario]

@ACharmingAbode Do you think you could use vanilla extract instead of almond in your " almond cookies" I have a niece with a tree nut allergy & though almond extract isn't truly made from almonds, the literature states that people with nut allergies shouldn't consume it

[@susanmccoy1992]

🍪🍪🍪

[@kathybriscoe1474]

Leslie everything looks delicious. I wanted to remind you that when your doing dessert recipes in the oven your are “baking” them not cooking them.

[@ACharmingAbode]

Lol I was waiting to see who would be the first to scold me for saying cooking 😂 Gentle reminder back: people use different terms living in different parts of the country. Cooking or baking, we all know exactly what I’m saying. ☺️

[@donnakearse2503]

And see your dentist in January 😊🎄

[@doxiesrule21]

😂

Merry Christmas 😊

[@Michelle-mb4qn]

Do u ever make sugar free … low carb recipes🤔

[@ItsKelsiesLife]

Plenty of other channels on KZbin do! A simple search and you’ll find lots.

[@ACharmingAbode]

@@Michelle-mb4qn not really! I’m not diabetic or on a low carb diet. I’m not sure where you got that impression. I bake like I eat, and at Christmas time we make lots of fun yummy goodies!

[@txs6837]

I am very sorry, but, cleaning toilets and baking for Christmas just doesn't go together in the same video. I was trying to watch a very nice recipe with the pumpkin bread and then all of a sudden you are talking about a toilet cleaning product. I was nauseated. Then you went back to your recipes. I think I am still upset after watching this. I was wondering if maybe you should have shown the toilet ad at the end of the video? What do you think?

[@ACharmingAbode]

@@txs6837 lol 😂 You saw some hard water stains. It’s not like you saw anything worth being nauseated about. I guess I’m just a more go with the flow kind of person. Silly things like this don’t even phase me. 🤪

[@txs6837]

@@ACharmingAbode So sorry again it is just that I was watching a great recipe being made, then all of a sudden you are talking about toilet product and then showing the toilets. sorry

[@ruthwarren8685]

Great recipes! Thanks Leslie! 🎄❤️🎄
