 Todays TitleBought this book mid "The Walking Dead" craze to add to my collection. Lots of macabre-sounding recipes inside and snarky lines. Below is a sample.The back cover has an interesting backstory, touting a woman just trying to fight the dead and feed the living, from "brain food to finger food, from sticky sweets to killer cocktails." The three chapters are titled:Appetizers for an

Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

My girls ask for these cookies every year. I started making them when they were kids and I don't even use a recipe. My hands know what to do to make these Christmas delights.

Merry Christmas! And have a blessed New Year!
