These are a few of my favorite things....Part 2

So last year in December I did this snazzy little post:

Part one

I still hate that Favorite Things song and I still think it doesn't belong in Christmas. I also still hate Rascal Flats. However, I still have more favorite things. YES MORE. How can that be?.....you ask? I have lots of favorite things to counterbalance all the things that I hate. And also, 1/3 of the things listed are food items. :) So, here goes!
