Holidays

Taking a break from a stringent healthy eating and exercise routine during the holiday season can actually be beneficial for your overall wellbeing. This break not only provides an opportunity to enjoy the festive treats and dishes that often accompany holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, but it also allows for a mental respite from the daily discipline required by a strict regimen. This can ultimately lead to a greater sense of balance and satisfaction with our lifestyles. Additionally, indulging mindfully in the festivities can help us avoid feelings of deprivation, renew our commitment to health and wellness, and possibly prevent overcompensation and binge eating behaviors in the future. It’s essential, however, to remember that moderation is key and to resume the healthy routine after the holiday break.

These homemade apple pie cookies are the hallmark of the holiday season, with their delightful blend of comfort and charm. In my home, there are barely any leftovers once these super soft cookies are made.
