Christmas Cheer
List of Ingredients
Stud oranges, or pomegranates with whole cloves. Display them in a pretty
glass bowl.
Fill a small decorative bowl with spices: whole cloves, whole nutmeg,
vanilla bean, cinnamon sticks and strips of orange peel. Tie a ribbon
around the bowl or place a bow inside the bowl and place it on a shelf or
coffee table.
Cover the outside of a large coffee tin or other large tin with wrapping
paper. Tie a ribbon around it. Fill it with spruce or pine boughs. Place
the tin on the floor. Remember to water the branches regularly to keep
fresh.
You can even decorate the boughs with Christmas ornaments, lights, ribbon,
popcorn strings, etc.
Place a collection of assorted scented candles on a serving platter.
Choose candles of different heights and diameters. They can all be the
same color or you can vary the color. Once the candles are arranged, tie a
ribbon around them. If you light the candles, be careful not to catch the
ribbon on fire.
Throw a handful of spices directly into the fire. Use whole nutmeg,
cinnamon sticks, whole cloves and vanilla bean.
Simmer spices in a pot of water on the stove. Use whole nutmeg, cinnamon
sticks, whole cloves and vanilla bean.
