Today was Oscar’s preschool Christmas party. Back in August, I signed up to bring snacks in December because I needed that cushion of knowing I wouldn’t have to think about it for a while. Of course life happened and before I knew it, we were all wearing holiday jammies and stuffing Christmas cards. And then last night I found myself in the grocery store at 10pm desperately searching for ingredients to make these cute little treats I’d seen on Pinterest. Because of course, my snack was the Christmas party snack. I knew myself well enough to not commit to baking anything, but I could at least assemble something cute, right?
