Herb Roasted Chicken Drumsticks with Veggies: A Culinary Symphony - VLOGMAS DAY 21


Four days until Christmas. Four.

If that doesn’t make you want to grab a mug of hot cocoa, throw on some fuzzy socks, and hum carols under your breath, I don’t know what will. Day 21 of #VLOGMAS2021 is here, and while I’m thrilled to be entering the home stretch, there’s a little pang in my heart knowing this daily posting adventure is nearly over. The challenge has been equal parts exciting and exhausting, a joyful race where the finish line is glittering with tinsel and the smell of holiday feasts. And today’s feature? Oh, it’s a beauty. Herb Roasted Chicken Drumsticks with Veggies, a dish so hearty, so fragrant, and so downright inviting that you might find yourself making it long after the holiday decorations are packed away.

British Bourbon Cookies, A Sweet Finale to Cookie Week - VLOGMAS DAY 20


Day 21 of #VLOGMAS2021.

It’s the last day of Cookie Week, and I’m telling you right now, we are going out with a bang. No timid shortbread or polite little sugar cookies today. Oh no, we’re bringing in the big guns: British Bourbon Cookies. Chocolatey, crispy, and aromatic, they’re the perfect sweet bite to close this week’s cookie celebration on a high note. Imagine this: two delicate, crisp biscuits with just the right snap when you bite into them, sandwiching a smooth, cocoa-rich filling that melts into the buttery crunch. It’s the kind of treat that begs for a hot drink, tea if you’re feeling proper, coffee if you need the caffeine, or even a mug of hot chocolate if you want to go all-in on indulgence.

Indulge in Decadence with these Chocolate Crinkle Cookies - VLOGMAS DAY 19



Day 19 of my #VLOGMAS2021, and this one is for the true chocolate lovers. The unapologetic cocoa fanatics. The people who believe chocolate is not just a food group, it’s a love language. Today, we’re indulging in something rich, soft, and absolutely stunning: Chocolate Crinkle Cookies. These are no ordinary cookies. They’re soft on the inside, slightly crisp on the outside, with a delicate coating of powdered sugar that bakes into the most beautiful cracked, or “crinkled,” pattern. The result is a treat that looks as if it’s been dusted by the first snow of winter. And honestly, could there be a cookie more perfect for the holiday season?
