This past weekend, I drove back to my home state of Kentucky for the first of many warmer weather lake weekends.

Spiked Peppermint Mocha Mousse
I’m ho ho home for the holidays and basically surviving on everything peppermint for the rest of the year. Growing up, we would go to my grandmother’s house for Christmas every year.
