holiday decadence ...

The treat I most associate with the Christmas holidays isn't candy canes. Nor is it sugarplums (whatever the hell they are) or gumdrops.

Nope.

It's fudge.

My mom always made fudge around the holidays ... it's a great winter treat because it keeps better in the cold. In fact, before refrigeration, it's about he only time you could make it, get it to set and stay unmelted for any length of time.

My mom's fudge rocks. I've had some that were as good, and loved those fudge places at the malls where you could see them make it on the big marble slabs, using modified snow shovels.

As your Early HNT from Guam treat (albeit late), here's me indulging in the first fudge of the season (store-bought gift from a friend, but you take what you can get).
