There's the lemon buttermilk filling.  This is actually a really old recipe of my Grandmas and I honestly dont remember her making it too often.  It is a southern specialty and a delish one too!
I also got done some cheddar pepper topped foccacia loaves,  Butternut squash soup, vegetarian white bean chili,  creamy tater soup,



the shortbread trees complete with green sugar and colored non pariels. 

gingersnap triangles that need to be dipped in chocolate yet

These are fun to do you use a large star tip and pipe them out into strips with a little extra at the ends. 
mocha wands that get 1/2 dipped in melted milk chocolate
so what a day!!  I am beat and goin to bed early.  Tomorrow is our artisans market and also my last show of the season.  I am sad but also glad as this has been wayyy too much extra work.   Still working on opening a shop just waiting for a liability insurance policy and I can open!!

Good night yall!!
