Memorable Moment:
Our Christmas Day dinner doesn't happen until the afternoon so we're up early Christmas morning to open presents and have breakfast. About mid-morning, we all get the munchies and this coffee cake is a yummy treat we have with hot chocolate or tea to hold us over until the big Christmas dinner later.
