What great timing for this article. I just finished making 4 batches of pretzels with Hersheys hugs melted on top (320 total), 4 dozen Russian Tea cakes and 2 dozen orange balls for after the Sunday school program at church this Sunday plus 2 batches of Church Window cookies for my 2 daughters' holiday party at school tomorrow. While my family was quite happy to sample for "quality assurance", I haven't had a single one.
I don't think I could have done that a couple of years ago (who am I kidding...I would have had to make a couple of extra batches because of my "quality sampling"), but this year even the chocolate from the Hugs smelled sickeningly sweet to me and I wasn't terribly tempted. I admit, the Russian Tea Cakes were hard to resist, but now that they're made and put away, they're not calling to me like they would have a few years ago.
Of course, I did have some sugar-free chocolate in the house so I would have another option just in case I was tempted, but the bag is still unopened.
Tomorrow is our Christmas potluck breakfast at work. I'm bringing...scrambled eggs mixed with sausage and covered in cheese.
