Welcome!

Welcome to Simple Fare, Fairly Simple. This is a place for me to post recipes of all kinds...along with other miscellaneous fodder from my so-called life here in the south. Who knows what you will find here. Could be anything from my husband...known as IT Guy...to my kids and beautiful grandbabies that are growing up way too fast right before my eyes. But...mostly this will be a place for food. I hope you'll see something you like and if you decide to try something from the list...leave me a comment and let me know!

Holiday Treat/Cookie/Goodie Exchange ....SUCCESS!!

I posted last week about the holiday treat exchange I was having. Well...I had it and it was great! I invited about 20 women...and about 15 showed up. And can I just say...that was plenty. Not sure what we all would have done with 5 more goodie bags to take home. We had everything from turtle candy to coconut macaroons. Star shaped sugar cookies to white chocolate popcorn. Pecan brittle and brown sugar sugar cookies. Everything was beautifully wrapped and looked delicious! We've already scavenged through our pile of treats. I sent some with my son to his work....and there's still a LOT left! Yay for good cooks!!

Here's a picture of the table...laden with treats. I should have thought to take an after picture. The table was pretty barren when it was over.

All the yummy goodies!
