When you make the snowmen instead of using a toothpick and having to worry about the kids, you can just use the same pretzel you are using. Either push one threw or if you need use a second one to extend it to make it longer. Just a thought. I love all of your ideas.

Peanut clusters is correct. These all look wonderful. You are so resourceful. I do the chocolate peanuts, pecans and almonds.. I roast the pecans and almonds. The peanut crackers one of my daughters reminded me how much they liked that. We used the mini Ritz sandwich crackers which was super easy. I am going to do as your doing here. The pretzels I may do too. God bless all here.

I always make the peanut butter ritz dipped in almond bark. This year I bought a box of Ritz Bits dropped them into the melted bark. Out of the whole box there were only two I couldn’t use. They are a cute size and it took no time to make them! I make the peanut clusters too but use cashews, always a big hit! I like to melt chocolate add a few drops of peppermint extract and dip Ritz crackers, taste just like the Girl Scout cookies! Pretzel crisps are great for dipping, I only dip about half a crisp and then shake sprinkles, hands don’t get messy! Enjoyed your video as always!

I don't know why I didn't think of that!

I know it is really busy around Xmas but if people want to do themselves and the under-priveliged a favor then tidy up your home......I know it is too much to do it all at one time but today, for instance, I cleaned up my walk in wardrobe where I found toys still in boxes that I had as presents when my kids were invited to a birthday party at the last moment........My kids are now grown so I donated all the toys to a local charity shop and it's a win/win situation. They will pack them into hampers for needy kids and I have more storage space......There is also many shopping malls and other places where you can leave non-perishable food items that are packaged up into hampers for Xmas......My mom loves to give me packets or rice and pasta and cans off soup I don't need. I was able to donate all these so my pantry is not cluttered anymore and some families get a nice food hamper for Xmas.

I saw that you have a Kitchen Aid lift mixer. How do you think it compares to a regular Kitchen Aid mixer? I’ve been contemplating the lift mixer for awhile. Does the lift just make it sturdier? How does it work when you need to add ingredients as it’s mixing? Love all of your recipes! Thanks for the tip of adding the almond extract to the buckeyes. For the peanut cluster I add raisins to mine, too.

These are great questions. Honestly, this is the only one I've ever had. When I need to add ingredients, I just turn off the mixer and add and then start it again, unless its in a bigger bowl and then I lower the mixer to add. I really love it but I don't have anything to compare it to other than just a handheld mixer.

I sprinkle pink Himalayan salt on top before putting into the fridge
