They're Ba-a-ack!

And now for this shameless commercial message...

If you've been waiting a whole calendar year to order your next Butter Braid, your wait is over!

Flavors: Apple, Blueberry & Cream Cheese, Caramel Roll, Cherry, Cinnamon (pictured), Cream Cheese, Raspberry, Strawberry & Cream Cheese.

Cost: $12 each.

Servings per braid: 11 (if you are willing to share with others).

Let us know by Oct. 16 if you wish to order. Checks payable to Assumption Catholic Schools if you are able to pay ahead of time.

Now back to regular programming...

You know what else is back? Although, I prefer to get through one holiday at a time before the next is thrust upon us, I just happened to be buying milk tonight and they had EGGNOG on the shelf! If you are a fan of it like me, you know it is never too early to have that in your fridge.

You know what else is back? Schwan's Peppermint Stick ice cream! Even though the Schwan's man was yanking my chain and saying he wasn't sure it was coming back this year, I found out from a very reliable source (Schwan's website) that it's back.

You know what else is back? The 15 pounds I lost this year will be if I eat Butter Braids, wash them down with eggnog and have Peppermint Stick ice cream for dessert.

Enjoy in moderation, Robyn. Enjoy in moderation.
