Remember to inquire with your holiday guests if they're allergic to nuts before you prepare this. Cross contamination can be difficult to manage in a home kitchen.

I like giving spiced nuts as holiday gifts. This slow-cooker recipe with ginger and cinnamon is so good, you just might use it all year long. —Yvonne Starlin, Westmoreland, Tennessee

BOOKKEEPER LOGIC

Sold a house? Not buying something new for a few months? Pay attention to the interest you're getting on your money!

Case in point: You have $500,000 in your bank account for six months. Interest can be as low as .2%, which means you'll get about $500 interest for the period.

Talk to your financial advisor and LISTEN to what they tell you. If they can provide you with a guaranteed investment of even 2.5% for the period, that can be up to $12,500!

Remember to watch out for penalties for early withdrawal and locked in stuff. Again, talk to your financial advisor.

This is simple math. Go ahead and be smart!
