Irish Soda Bread Recipe

Several months ago I was watching an episode of 19 Kids and Counting in which the family was in Ireland and they made soda bread.

DIY Advent Calender

Growing up, we always used to get those chocolate advent calenders. Yum! But since my kids are so young, and a little bit of sugar makes them go bonkers goes a long way with them, I wanted to do something different to count down the days until Christmas. I looked around Pinterest for a while, then finally stumbled on this. I used the [More...]
