Making a bread braid is not hard. It is just like braiding hair, only doughier. :)

You know what that means, right?
How are you going to look your kids, your husband, your neighbors in the face and tell them you did not bake sugar cookies on sugar cookie day? Don’t even think about it. It is too awful to imagine.

He was such a chocolate fan that when we lived in Pennsylvania he used to buy cocoa hulls (that came […]
