I was planning to post these chocolate buttermilk cupcakes with chocolate butter cream frosting and candy holly today.

But it does seem a little late.

After all it is Christmas Eve, and chances are, you already know exactly what you're making for dinner. And breakfast. And for dinner tomorrow. Etc.

But I still wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas and tell all of my readers how much I've enjoyed sharing my recipes and random ramblings with you. I have so much more that I want to share in the coming year. (Even in the coming week, and if the Quiet Man doesn't hold me back, even tomorrow.) Thanks so much for being my friends, for trying my recipes and for being interested in my sweet and savory minutia. It's no fun to be thrifty alone; I need my fiesty gang of penny pinchers here at Prudence Pennywise.
In the meantime, a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday to all! And in the words of Tiny Tim, God bless us, every one!
PS Happy Birthday to my Irish twin sister Michelle, the Christmas Eve baby that came home in a giant stocking. I was always so jealous of that big giant stocking. I still am. A little. Still Coming: Christmas in Italy

Of course, I still have time to add some cupcakes to my menu! There is always room for dessert you know!
I thought of Michelle first thing this morning, too, and retold my family of the GIANT baby carrier stocking, too. I always wanted one too. :)
