Happy post-feast, and welcome to the busiest month of the year! The good news is it’s filled with fun, music, recipes, and many tasty bits. As we cool off our black Friday credit cards and head into Cyber Monday, I want to extend an offer to new subscribers or folks who have been getting the free emails but would like to upgrade to paid. Between now and noon Monday, you can do so at 50% off ($25 for the year). This will give you access to all the recipes, podcasts, subscriber-exclusive invitations, and recipe archives available here on Substack.

Watch for my 12 days of cookie recipes on Instagram and Facebook, starting with the beautiful - Stacey's Raspberry and Almond Jam Thumbprint recipe from my friend and Cookie Exchange member. It is a delightful, flavorful cookie and could probably even be filled with leftover cranberries, a theme of today’s newsletter.

Anyone who rates any recipes on stephaniesdish.com will be registered to win your choice of one of 3 Cookie Books, including:

• Zoe Bakes Cookies

• Baking For The Holidays or any one Sarah Kieffer’s book, 100 Cookies perhaps? or
