What Your Favorite Holiday Cookie Says About You

It’s about that time of year when cinnamon fills the air and holiday lights line just about everything. Different types of holiday cookies are practically the best part about this season. All of these choices can really tell a lot about a person. From gingerbread all the way to peppermint bark, there is a flavor for everyone and a holiday cookie to match it.

1. Gingerbread cookies

This holiday specialty is not for the average cookie eater. This seasonal delicacy is a favorite of those looking for a more personal dessert. Attention to detail is key as the baker creates the perfect identity for their delicious holiday cookie. Frosting decorations are included and are a must.

2. Gingerbread houses

The gingerbread house is among the holiday treats that take the most creativity and planning. This person can visualize the architecture of this soon-to-be monument before all of the materials have even been prepped. This individual is strategic to say the least. All of the measurements and not to mention the well thought-out placement of gum drops are just a few examples of the tough considerations that this person handles regularly.

3. Pre-made Pillsbury cookies

Not to call anyone out, because these cookies are the bomb, but let’s not lie, these pre-made bad boys are for the last minuters. There may be a holiday party that you ran out of time to prepare something for, but everyone knows that these are always a crowd favorite. No judgment, but you’re probably slightly lazy, which is not a problem, because everyone loves you for your cookies!

4. Peppermint bark

This mostly chocolate treat is for a more refined taste. Not everyone is a huge fan of mint, especially when it’s mixed with chocolate. Those that can appreciate the combo are likely to be more open to trying new things and take risks when it comes to food. Think of it this way; peppermint bark does two jobs in one. It provides you with one of the best things ever invented, chocolate, and acts as a breath freshener with the mint. I guess that means that you’re the innovative type as well.

5. Decorated sugar cookies

Sugar cookies are the basics. Adding some holiday decorations is what helps to personalize this cookie. Although this person usually enjoys the classics and isn’t very picky, they occasionally like to jazz things up with some sprinkles or frosting. Not everything has to be simplistic, especially when it comes to desserts.

6. Snickerdoodles

The snickerdoodle is a classic and has been around forever. Its cinnamon sugar flavor and chewy texture have become a classic and a must when the holidays roll around. People that prefer the snickerdoodle are comfortable with what they’ve always done and continue their cooking traditions year after year.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
