  1. Definitely going to try the Spiced Walnuts. I've been doing a lot of baking lately...instead of studying for finals (no worries, I got A's in all my classes still). I've done brownies, Cheesecake cupcakes, sugar cookies and frosting, chocolate chip cookies, and yesterday my sister did a nut roll. Love Christmas food! And I think we have leftover walnuts from the nutroll...Merry Christmas!
