Hold on to those empty wine bottles. You can easily make cute barware or drinking glass with them. A good way to recycle, and they make great gifts. ⠀

Bloggers sharing their hometowns. I live in Peters Township, just 10 miles south of Pittsburgh. Today on the blog I'm sharing a bit about the place I call home and some of my favorite things to do. This is the third day of a Points of Interest hop. You'll love reading about places all over the US and Canada. I know I've found several that I want to add to my travel bucket list.

I just found fresh cranberries in the grocery store. Time to make these buttery fresh cranberry shortbread cookies.⠀
⠀
Here's the best part about these cookies. You don't need to cook the fresh cranberries with sugar first. In fact, I don't add any additional sugar except the normal amount used in shortbread cookie dough. The result is a beautiful buttery shortbread cookie with a little sweetness and the tart flavor of cranberries. I promise you won't miss the extra sugar. ⠀

Bringing a yummy casserole is a great option to help out and something everyone will love. Like this delicious butternut squash casserole that has a panko breadcrumb and fresh corn topping. ⠀
⠀
That's right corn. My sister-in-law mentioned this idea to me recently on a dish she had so I had to try. No surprise. It was great. I'll definitely be trying this on other recipes. ⠀
