However, things feel as though they are currently still moving! We have been busy preparing to move to our home, our home is under contract and the holidays are quickly approaching. Thanksgiving and Christmas will be upon us before we know it. It is also a time for baking and also such an enjoyable time of year !
Gingerbread is among my favorite tastes of the year. Of the spices are what this time of year is all about. And this cheesecake contains three elements which make it flavorful -- both the cheesecake filling, that the crust along with the mousse topping. So enjoyable!
