Of course, the cars can’t go forever—they have to take a break and idle so the pit crew can do their job. Cars can’t run on an empty gas tank, nor can they race on tires without any tread. Stopping momentarily to regroup is crucial to their success.

An exceptionally well-wrapped gift is a double present. You are giving the gift of whatever your gift is, but you are also giving the gift of beauty; the gift of pleasure; the gift of joy. All presents are fun, but a beautifully packaged present is even more fun. Isn’t it nice, in a warm, sappy way, to let someone know that you care enough not only to give them something, but also to wrap it with little jingle bells on top? That is thoughtfulness; that is love.
And (on a less warm, sappy note), while it is true that gift-giving is not technically “a competition” (I mean, I guess), there is no denying that all else being equal, the prettier package wins.

Spritz cookies and shortbread cookies both fall into the beloved category of classic and simple butter cookies. Side by side their ingredient lists are nearly identical in contents and measures. They both bake up buttery (no surprise there) with a tender, melt-in-your-mouth quality and a not-too-sweet flavor. What sets spritz cookies and shortbread cookies apart, then, comes down to one ingredient and shaping methods.

Pinwheel cookies are a simple upgrade on a classic sugar cookie, perfect for the home baker who wants to bake beautiful sugar cookies but doesn’t have the time (or desire) to decorate two-dozen cookies with royal icing. The premise is simple: Mix up your favorite sugar cookie dough, divide that dough into two, color and flavor one of the doughs, roll them out, roll them together, slice, and bake. The hardest part of baking pinwheel cookies is deciding how to color and flavor the dough and rolling the two doughs together, but there are a few tricks to make both easier.

Forget chestnuts roasting on an open fire. The best scent this time of year doesn’t have a song, but it should.

Here’s what we love about baking: There’s a recipe for every kind of baker, including those who prefer to have homemade cookies within 30 minutes. If you fall in the latter category, you came to the right place. This collection is full of cookies that are delicious yet very simple to make. While you still need to measure precisely (this is baking, after all), these recipes require minimal effort.
If you’re looking for a classic, go with the magic bars, or if you need a cookie that feeds everyone — Paleo, vegan, gluten-free, you name it — we’ve got that too. Here are eight low-key recipes to help you out.

Just saying “pleased as punch” conjures up thoughts of a cheerful, bubbly drink at the center of some fabulously festive party.
Surely the origins of this phrase date back to some happy 18th-century public house talk, right? Sorry — like so many strange turns of phrase in our lexicon, the back story on this one is actually kind of a downer.
Punch in this case refers not to the delicious, big-batch cocktail, but rather a very naughty puppet: Punch.
