Welcome to Christmas Corner at Faithful Provisions–where saving money and making memories intersect in a truly wonderful way! I love this time of year, and believe me, I know how crazy it can get! But I also know that a little planning can go a long way in making sure that you have a Christmas to remember: one that you enjoy and that your family remembers for all the right reasons.
Christmas Recipes
My favorite Christmas recipes are ones that are quick and easy! I would much rather be spending my time with my family than cooped up in the kitchen. I spent an entire Christmas in the kitchen one year, and I don’t ever want to do that again! I don’t want you to either. Many of my recipes for Christmas dishes are foods that can be made ahead of time, stored in the freezer, then simply reheated and served. That makes life much easier, and it makes Christmas much more fun! Plus, wouldn’t it be great to create dishes from ingredients that are on sale? I coordinate my Christmas recipes with what I know will be on sale this time of year, and you can too.

The Season of Advent
One of the greatest joys in my walk as a follower of Christ has been celebrating the season of Advent every Christmas. Knowing that, as a Christian, I look back on His birth and look forward to His coming again has given me a truly deeper and richer experience every year. You can discover Advent and what it means HERE.
My prayer for my readers this year is that you have a merry Christmas season, full of the joy of receiving God’s greatest gift, Jesus, and overflowing with the blessing of sharing His love with others.
