Tweet It may seem like any old boring Monday, but I’ve got something to put a smile on your face. Today I’m participating in a Holiday Treat Party hosted by Molly at CAKEfyi. Click over to her site and you’ll find tons of delicious holiday treats from a bunch of different blogs, plus a...

Hostess is going out of business.  Yep, that’s right.  That most American of companies and bastion of snack foods is calling it quits.  On the internets in general and Facebook in particular, there are stories about how the “unions” ruined the place, celebrations of the “demise of junk food” and photos of cleaned out...
