Well hot damn, friends. I feel like with all the volunteering and parties and endlesssssss cooking this week, we are a bit of a mess rolling into Christmas. My kids woke up not feeling great and I am hoping we can make the most of this quiet Friday, and right this ship for the weekend.

I hope you and yours are healthy and looking forward to this weekend. I know giving you this shopping list on the 23rd is cutting things tight, but I hope you find something in this collection that fits into your plans. My kids will definitely want to work on the monkey bread because there certainly haven't been enough baked goods this week ;) and I love-love this salad and am of course on assignment for those for both families so we will revisit that one.

You will notice there are two weeks worth of holiday things here. This means there will not be another new menu this coming Friday. Given how both Christmas and New Years fall this year, we figured having two big weeks up at once may serve everyone most effectively. Please let me know if you have any holes in your menu, I would love to help.

I am so glad you are here - whether you're new around here or a from-the-beginning member. I look forward to cooking with you all in the new year and to sharing some changes we are working on behind the scenes.

A very happy holidays to each of you lovely people! Thank you for supporting Sprouted Kitchen Cooking Club!
