Molly Sims has traveled the world with her modeling and acting career, but she's still a Kentucky girl at heart.

At Rembrandt and Neutrogena's Holiday Party Prep event at NYC's Blow salon, the model mama told E! News how she, husband Scott Stuber and their 5-month old son, Brooks, plan to celebrate the Christmas season.

"We make this tea called Spice Tea," she said. "It's very Southern." (Also easy! Just mix instant powdered tea, Tang, powdered lemonade and a dash of nutmeg and cinnamon. Add to hot water, and voila, y'all!) 

The Las Vegas star also indulges in desserts from below the Mason-Dixon line. "Red velvet cake," she said. "And do you know what Derby Pie is?"

Of course we do! Derby Pie is a type of chocolate and walnut tart made by Kern's Kitchen in Prospect, Ky. While many have tried to duplicate it, the tried and true original comes straight from the Bluegrass State.

But Molly's true Southern roots really show in her preparations for Santa Claus. "We've always had stockings with our names on them in my family," she said. "So I just had all new stockings made for my new family."

We're pretty sure those stockings will be stuffed come Christmas morning!
