“It’s the most wonderful time of the year!”  After busy days of shopping, preparing, partying and merriment, there are those nights when you just want to get cozy on the couch, stare into a blazing fire and enjoy a steaming hot bowl of comfort food.  Call me a crazy romantic, but this is what I dream of! After our busy weekend hunting for our voluptuous Fraser Fir Christmas tree, (we call her “Daphne”) and then decorating her until she glowed and sparkled, along with volunteering, housework, grocery shopping and food prep, I was ready for a relaxed evening with a few of my favorite things like yoga pants, snuggling, a warm fire, chili and a favorite Christmas movie (mine is White Christmas with Bing Crosby…absolutely love!!). If you need some inspiration for some yummy comfort food, I have a stellar recipe!
