Yes, it's Foodie Friday and Pink Saturday on Sunday, but I've got an important question for Buttercupland:
I've given this question a lot of thought. I've been careful with my treats and I'm trying to be really selective and only eat those items that are special, and I do have criteria for special. The food has to be exclusive to this time of year and something I really liked. I spent time thinking about this and after a visit to my local mall and some browsing, narrowed it down to two choices.
What's your favorite food treat at this time of year?

My nearest mall, the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle
I scanned the shelves at Whole Foods and Williams-Sonoma. I found some enticing treats at Whole Foods, including this Pink Elephant themed beverage. It's not at all my choice, but I couldn't resist the photo for Pink Saturday.
These sea salt truffles were closer to my taste. I do like candy, but they weren't unique to the season.
I found my answers at Williams-Sonoma. I debated between the legendary Peppermint Bark and the variation of Peppermint Bark peanut butter cups...
...and ginger spice cookies.
I debated and debated, and there were samples to help my decision. Would it be chocolate and peppermint or would it be ginger spice?
The winner of the Buttercupland favorite Christmas food is...
Peppermint Bark!
The ginger spice goodies were delicious, but I stayed with my favorite peppermint bark. I am a chocolate and peppermint fan throughout the year and on those rare times when I get a sundae it's always mint chocolate chip and hot fudge.
It was a lovely day in New York and I spent the afternoon walking and enjoying a relatively balmy day. I continued my decluttering this morning and worked on my coat closet, which now has three less coats. Linen and storage closet are next on my list.
As always, thanks for visiting and take good care!
