As the holidays are fast approaching, my to-do list seems ever expanding - everyday I
pin another recipe I'd like to try, or
DIY project I'd love to tackle. I'm sure many of you can relate to this, but every year I wish that December was a couple of days longer. Between flavoured marshmallows, indulgent cakes and intricate cookies, I know this holiday season will be sweet, flavourful and time-consuming!
To help ease the hectic season and lend a little festive spirit, here is the first of our December giveaways! I have a copy of Rachael Ray's newest cookbook,
My Year in Meals. The book is split between recipes and a series of cocktails concocted by Rachael's husband, John Cusimano. If you're looking for a few colourful drinks to add to your holiday menus, this is a great place to start. I already have my eye on the
Panettone, a mix of vodka, Grand Marnier, orgeat syrup and champagne - that has to be a perfect way to ring in the new year, don't you think?
To enter the contest, simply leave a comment on this post and let me know what your go-to holiday dish is when you entertain. The contest ends on December 15th, at midnight. The winner will be drawn
at random and you must be a Canadian or American resident to enter. Good
luck and I look forward to hearing from you!
And for a few stress-free holidays treats, try a few of my favourite indulgences for this time of year!

I love serving appetizers, cookies, candy - finger foods.
Chicken with greek salad and greek potatoes.
My go-to holiday dish is always cookies because I spend the whole season constantly baking and filling tins. I also always make beef tenderloin for Christmas dinner itself.
