Today my family and friends are getting together to bake Christmas sweets!! I got an early start yesterday while my 2 little ones were napping and my older one was visiting his cousins.  I figured with everyone coming over I would go ahead and get my baking started, plus I wanted to bake some sweets for their teachers and it just wouldn't be nice to bake and not share with my guests....LOL.
So everyone is coming over after noon today.  I have taco soup in one crock pot and I am trying white bean chicken chili in another crock pot.  I have had it a couple times with my bunco group, but I have never made it myself.  So we shall see how it turns out.
Starting off this morning I am making "pretzel turtles .  Someone made them this week at work and they are just delish!! Very easy too.  Here is the recipe I got offline, but who needs a recipe?! They are so easy!! 
Ingredients
    * 20 small mini pretzels
    * 20 chocolate covered caramel candies
    * 20 pecan halves
Directions
   1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
   2. Arrange the pretzels in a single layer on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Place one chocolate covered caramel candy on each pretzel.
   3. Bake for 4 minutes. While the candy is warm, press a pecan half onto each candy covered pretzel. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
