Merry Christmas from me to you.
I hope Santa brings you peace and love, a KitchenAid mixer and a dishwasher… and a kitten.
Thank you for being all up in my area this year. I can’t tell you how much it means to me that you come to this little place and say nice things… everyday. You people are truly lovely.
See this face? This face needs a nap for Christmas… and a kitten. That would be amazing.
Merry Christmas. Happy Holidays. Watch out for eggnog… it’ll getcha!

Back at ya, Joy! You give us a present every time you post a new recipe! :)
Oh, and forgot to say that I’m up right now (9:30 EST) getting ready to make your eggnog pancakes. Thanks so much!
Merry Christmas Joy! Thanks for taking all the time and effort to create and maintain this blog. I think you have set the standard on how food blogs should be created. So happy that I found it. This Pittsburgher is better because of it.
I wish you peace+love, happiness, and a very ample supply of ingredients, along with the kitten, mixer and dishwasher.

Merry Christmas, Joy!
Santa did indeed bring me a KitchenAid mixer this year, but I received it early, in order to help with the making of yummy Christmas goodies.
I hope that you got a nap, a kitten, and a day filled with love and laughter.
Merry Christmas! Good luck with that kitten!
Merry Christmas Joy, I love your site and your ideas they inspire me to do things I never have before. I am hoping for a new mixture. I’ll let you know how it pans out in a few. Good luck with the kitten!
How did you know that is exactly what I would LOVE for Christmas? Hope your holiday is divine and that it includes a kitten.
Hope you have a great Christmas!
i want a kitten, too! probably won’t get one, but i hope you do! merry christmas!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS! I hope that you get your kitten. I got my Kitchen Aid Mixer! I’m supposed to act surprised when I open it. Don’t ask how I know. Enjoy your day :o)
Merry Christmas! I discovered your blog this year and just wanted to tell you that I love it! :)
And while he’s no kitten, I am currently sitting with this sweet creature on my lap and so I thought I’d share the love a little ;) Hope you get a creature of your own to cuddle with!

Merry Christmas Joy!
Can you believe I really AM getting a KitchenAide mixer this year?! Keep your eye out for it to be introduced on my blog in January!
Happy Holidays Joy! And thank you for such lovely blog posts! I really enjoy reading your posts =)
Joy, Merry Christmas! I so enjoy your blog, you have inspired me to get back to baking and I have shared your site with my daughter and daughter-in-law. I lovingly use my 35+ year old Kitchen Aid – my mother-in-law gave it to me when she got too old to bake. I made your pumpkin pie bars for several functions and they were loved by all! Looking forward to more recipes in the new year!
Merry Christmas Joy!
I really enjoy reading your blog, it’s those few minutes for myself every couple of days that make it so much fun :)
Okay, I’m not a big “commenter” because I feel like my silly comments merge into a mass of other adoring fans… but its Christmas, I’m feeling nostalgic. :) I’m a huge fan and like many others, just love you to pieces. How do so many people love the author of a blog they’ve never met?? Because of the way you share yourself with us. So really – thank you, very much for that.
And another reason, I decide to write a comment on this particular day? I open the webpage and I see your “Peace” ornament… the same ornament I have on my tree. :) Love it. Just another reason I adore you Joy the Baker!
Merry Christmas to you! May God richly bless you with His love this year!
From another adoring fan, :)
Kelly
No Kitchenaid mixer…but I did get a panini press!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Merry Christmas! Peace, comfort and Joy to you.
Thanks for the inspiring blog… my family all got some homemade vanilla for xmas – thanks for the idea.
Keep up the great work on your blog for 2010 – we all appreciate it.
Merry Christmas Joy! I know I don’t comment often, but I read your blog whenever you post, and I love it. Have a magical day!
Happy Holidays, Joy! May all your kitten dreams come true!
Joy! I didn’t ask for a kitchenaid this year, but I was definitely aching for one and showed my mom your blog post this morning wishing us peace, love and a kitchenaid.
And to my surprise, my last present under the tree was a big heavy box, and inside was a beautiful shiny artisan kitchenaid mixer!!! So of course I thought of you and am hoping you are having a wonderful christmas.
Our house is packed to the gills with grandmas and aunts and uncles, and I couldn’t be happier. (We spontaneously started singing “let it snow” while eating waffles this morning, because it rained all day yesterday and our yard is flooded, but then all of a sudden big snowflakes started falling!)
I’m wishing all the best to you and your family and all the other joy the baker readers out there. Merry christmas and much love to everyone!
I MADE IT I MADE IT I MADE IT
JOY JOY JOY
CRUNCHY HEARTY BUT NOT TO SWEET
I USED TOASTED PECANS AND IT WAS PERFECT.
I GOT MY DREAM MIXER FOR CHRISTMAS. BRIGHT RED HEAVY DUTY KITCHENAID WITH THE THE DROP DOWN BOWL TO REPLACE MY OLD BLUE KITCHEAID(THAT REALLY DIDNT NEED REPLACING.) I ALMOST CRIED WHEN I WAS PACKING MY BLUE KITCHEDAID UP. I WAS THINKING OF ALL THE BAKED GOODS I MADE AND FED TO PEOPLE THAT I LOVE. ALL THE HAPPY MEMORIES AND MEALS I HAD SHARED. IT WAS THE FIRST EXPENSIVE THING I EVER BOUGHT FOR MYSELF. I PACKED IT UP AND WILL SAVE IT TO GIVE TO MY DAUGHTER WHEN SHE MOVES OUT.
Merry Christmas Joy!
I love love reading your site – your beautiful pictures, yummy recipes, and adorable self.
Thank you for so very many pancake recipes – and making me realize homemade pancakes are oh so attainable!
Have a lovely day!
Merry Christmas, Joy! Thanks for adding some happiness to my days and some inches to my waistline. Hope you have a wonderful 2010.
Merry Christmas to you, Joy!! You’re beautiful! Thanks for such fun recipes and humorous reading! I’m excited to come along for the ride in ’10!
Merry CHRISTmas Joy,

Merry Christmas!
