Advent Calendar: December 4

The annual holiday party shopping trip! Always a great adventure in calories and my favorite thing for December 4th.

Last night’s trip to Trader Joe’s was epic: applewood smoked bacon, jalapeno sausage, andouille sausage, camembert, goat cheese, cream cheese, capers, miniature cinnamon rolls for a cheater version of croquembouche, bags of potatoes no bigger than olives, beets, smoked salmon…we’re going to have some great food this weekend.
