In this episode of iCantCU, I discuss a trip to Harrisburg for a Blind Merchants and Business Enterprise Program Christmas party and fundraiser. Over $1000 was raised for the “little blind kids.” I also explain the logistics involved for me at our Keystone Chapter meeting and Christmas party at the Penn Museum.
Away Suitcase Disappointment
I share my disappointment at a recent Away Bigger Carry-On purchase. I ordered Alpine Landscape, but I received something else. Check out the unique, crazy pattern on it.

Gingerbread Latte Cookie Recipe
As suspected, I mentioned this recipe last year around this time. Eliz loves baking and made these for the Keystone Chapter Christmas Party: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1023677-gingerbread-latte-cookies#notes_section. She used her 34-year-old Kitchen-Aid mixer but would love to upgrade to this: https://amzn.to/3WdCWib.
