    December Musings

    Published: December 16, 2015 By Urban Foodie Kitchen Last Updated: October 30, 2017 Leave a Comment

    Can you believe that it's less than 10 days until Christmas, and less than 15 days until the new year?!  Where has the year gone?

    Things I'm Loving

    Well, other than the very un-early winter like weather here in Chicago,  I'm loving all the holiday lights and festive decorations.  Christmas is one of my favorite times of year!

    I'm also loving The Food Photography Book by Nagi of Recipe Tin Eats.  I highly recommend it to anyone who is working on improving their blog photography.  It has amazing tips, great examples and plenty of detail to help you improve your food photography.

    Blog Love

    So many great recipes out there; here are a few of my favorites:

    Chocolate Mousse Brownies and Candy Cane Chocolate Martinis from Peas and Peonies

    Carol of From a Chef's Kitchen created this great seasonal Pumpkin Ravioli with Brown Butter & Sage

    These Spiked Hot Chocolate on a Stick from Sprinkle Bakes would be perfect for a holiday party!

     This Cranberry Orange Triffle from Some the Wiser sounds delicious for a lighter holiday dessert
