For Christmas this year, I am going to go visit my fiancée
and her family in Stockton, California. I am looking forward to being with her
like none else. As we got to know each other of the past couple of months, we
have found that we share a common love. Mint. Her favorite color is green and
for our wedding she want the colors to be green, white, and silver. And of
course that means that there will be mint there. So for Christmas dinner when I
go there I wanted to share with her family on of my favorite desserts. I call
it Peppermint Wonderland, formally known as Toothpaste Pie. Because all amazing
things must be shared to the world. I give to you the recipe to Peppermint
Wonderland Pie for you to share with your family this Christmas Season.
