our family offerings are bread pudding and sugar cookies. The_Muted_Grimaud Send a noteboard - 05/12/2011 05:25:01 PM
I have a cousin and an aunt that always do bread pudding for the holidays, and my mom always makes sugar cookies with icing and decorations. Decorated sugar cookies are pretty ubiquitous around the holidays actually.

For thanksgiving we usually have apple pie and pumpkin bread. (We live in an apple orchard heavy region, apple items are very popular September-November.)

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:00:51 PM 463 Views
Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:02:42 PM 344 Views
No, generally we do not make cake for Christmas. *NM* Tom - 04/12/2011 04:41:05 PM 353 Views

We don't have a sheet of icing? Palatine - 04/12/2011 05:08:00 PM 761 Views
We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant. nossy - 04/12/2011 07:46:41 PM 1041 Views
That's just for Christmas cakes and wedding cakes, usually. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 07:58:55 PM 858 Views

Plus with loads of brandy used to "feed" the cake over the month before you ice it. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 08:45:28 PM 756 Views

There are other birds which it's "acceptable" to eat at Christmas, other than turkey. Tim - 05/12/2011 10:02:20 AM 745 Views

Fruitcake, I guess. But we don't coat it with disgusting icing. And it's not really cake. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/12/2011 10:12:21 PM 362 Views
Pie in November and December. Cake the rest of the year. TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2011 11:52:31 PM 805 Views
