Healthy-Christmas-Cookies I like blaming my 30's for a lot of things: the fine lines appearing under my eyes, the two-day hangovers, and the inability to lose weight the way I did in my 20's.  And while I don't have too much control over the first problem (let's be honest, eye cream is just overpriced moisturizer), I can drink less (well, sometimes) and I can definitely make healthier eating choices during the holidays. The idea of cookie exchanges has made its way to Shanghai, and so has Thanksgiving. For my day job, I've had to write listicles about turkey delivery services and where to go for the best cup of hot chocolate in the city. I'm also a food critic on the side, and it's literally my job to eat fattening food. So I cut corners when I can.
