Tis the season to make Christmas cookies! If you aren’t a baker or you’d like a few ideas of what to make, here are my top 5 Christmas cookies.

Pasta salad – it’s just one of those things that fits in with everything. Summer BBQ in the backyard? Pasta salad goes great with steak, chicken, or veggie burgers. Having a formal dinner for friends?
