It’s December already! Seriously, where does the time go??

It seems like Christmas has crept up on me, and I’m left high and dry without any gift ideas for anyone. Great, right?

Which is weird for me, I usually get most of my Christmas shopping done months in advance. The only reason I can think of as to why I was so well prepared was because I worked at Safeway, so as soon as Halloween was over, it was Christmas all the time, every day, all day at that place.

You’d have thought me to be quite the Grinch if you saw me at work at the time. The Christmas songs they play on repeat could drive anyone insane. Have you ever heard the instrumental version of The Twelve Days of Christmas?? Have you?? It’s SO repetitive and ridiculous, I just want to pull my hair out.

DAH dun da da duh
DAH dun da da duh
DAH dun da da duh
DAH dun da da duh
…

When will it ever end?

So naturally, when I’m stressed I bake. And I thought: Why not use up all these Tootsie Rolls left over from Halloween and make my first fudge ever?

And then a brilliant idea came into my head: what if, as a backup present for anyone I forget, I will give them some of this festive fudge.

And how is it festive? Well I made them with green and red M&Ms…DUH!

This fudge had just the right amount of sweet with hints of peanut butter coming through, that I really don’t think I can make a better holiday treat than this. But of course, this won’t stop me from trying.
