Let's take care of business first. It's Christmastime and you are here looking for some holiday recipes, for sure. Well, I got your back! Just click right here to see a Santa sleigh-full. It's a link to my holiday recipes from blog posts past; everything from pies to luscious side dishes, and roast turkey to party appetizers. Happy Holidays to you, thanks for visiting, and read on.

What follows is my year in GIFs. It's a Christmas stocking stuffed with short animation clips I've made. A GIF is about a dozen photos,or a video clip a few seconds long, that I upload to a website to convert into a short video that lasts a few seconds. A GIF does not have sound and the clip keeps replaying.

  
Fettuccine Alfredo - based on one of my most popular recipes from years ago. I made a video version at the beginning of this year. As good as Olive Garden's recipe?
