Boho Holiday Rosanna
Rosanna has a great quote on her blog that has to be read. See above - really love this!
So the Boho Holiday line brings 6 different designs on sets of dessert plates and mugs.
Charming and original, you'll want to mix and match the images. Look how great the "pine cone" dessert plate looks with a standard white dinner plate. This is so easy to incorporate into your look.
The colorful designs are so fashionable and will bring pleasure and warmth to your Holiday meals. Spread cheer with friends and plan a dessert party. These intimate get togethers are simple gestures that nurture relationships and remind everyone of happy times.
Serve up hot chocolate, coffee or a special warm beverage in these tall mugs. Here is a favorite recipe (from the Junior League of Tampa cookbook) that you might want to try out.
Hot Mulled Cider
1 (64-ounce) bottle apple cider or apple juice
1 (12-ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tsp. whole cloves
1 tsp. allspice
4 cinnamon sticks
4 orange slices
Additional cinnamon sticks
Directions: Combine the apple cider, orange juice concentrate and lemon juice in a large saucepan. Wrap the cloves, allspice and four cinnamon sticks in cheesecloth and tie with kitchen twine. Add to the cider mixture. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and add the orange slices. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve warm garnished with a cinnamon stick. Yield: 8-10 servings.
Enjoy!
