A lot of places will be rolling out special items for the holidays and you will be able to get as much peppermint this time of the year as you do pumpkin in the early fall.  It’s not just restaurants that are adding holiday-themed and new items. Even on a trip to a grocery store or a Wal-Mart run, you will see more and more Christmas-themed and new flavors of foods to try.  Gingerbread houses, the different types of marshmallows for baking not to mention the return on the wall nuts and pecans.
