Holiday Fun with Elisabeth Naughton

One of the people I love to talk to on twitter is Elisabeth Naughton, she is a ton of fun and loves the same movies as me. I had to ask her to share her favorite holiday treats with us and also her favorite holiday read. 

Your question got me thinking…you know, I don’t know that I’ve ever read a holiday themed romance! How out of it am I? When I was younger I used to get all excited about the holidays but the older I get, the more work they seem! Maybe what I really need is a good holiday themed romance to get me in the mood!
My favorite holiday goodie though is easy…
Tea Time Tassies (Like mini pecan pies…heaven!): 
TEA TIME TASSIES
3 oz. cream cheese
1/2 c. butter, unsalted
1 c. flourFILLING:

1 egg, beaten
3/4 c. brown sugar
