Hello everyone and Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
I hope you are well and spend some quality time with your family and friends. This Christmas Eve I would like to share this beautiful dessert table that was created by Felien from  Decor 'N Dessert Diva who creates some beautiful dessert tables.  Scroll down and read all the details behind this beautiful table.

It was my first time being in a collaboration and I loved it! The cake has crushed candy cane sprinkles!
I knew I wanted gold white red and light green as my theme! I had a Pinterest inspiration board that helped to give me ideas. 

The chocolate covered Oreos have hand piped buttercream flowers on top The cupcakes also have buttercream flowers
There's also gem and pyramids with crushed Oreo inside- very trendy on dessert tables now too- with edible gold colour paint on them.

Amy Atlas was the first Dessert Table Designer I saw years ago when she was on the Oprah Winfrey show. It wasn't until two years ago when I organized and styled my Sister's baby shower that I caught the dessert bug lol! It was just last year that I started learning to bake and decorate. This is a part of me that I never knew was inside! Growing up I was always "The Piano Teacher"   So this is all a surprise to my Family and Friends as well. 
​
​Merry Christmas everyone!"

Hello everyone, this time we would like to share a Drink Recipe that has been sent and shared by Happy Foods Tube.
It always interesting to read the story behind a recipe or a creation you make. I enjoyed reading her story and even imagined I visited the place she has visited. If you have a recipe for the holidays that brings up some good memories, please do not hesitate and share it with us.

So a few days ago we decided it was the right time to make one at home. We enjoyed every bit of it –making it, drinking it (obviously) and “fishing” for the raisins and almonds from the bottom of our mugs. The aroma of spices had spread throughout the house and lasted for hours.

The mulled wine has also brought back some memories from last year when we visited Christmas market in Tallinn. It was absolutely amazing experience and we were so lucky with the weather as well. It was cold. Ok, it was freezing but it was SNOWING when we arrived. Big thick snowflakes were falling down from the skies and in the evening when the lights went on you thought you were in a fairy tale.


​

So if you are thinking of making this warm beverage any time soon then this is the recipe for you! It’s simply delicious. You can omit the extra bit of alcohol (rum, brandy) if you prefer it that way. However, raisins and almonds go hand in hand with this drink so I suggest you keep them in your drink rather than omitting them. Believe me I know what I am saying as I am not a big fan of raisins. This was our second attempt (trying to get the right balance of flavors) and I think it’s the real deal!
Scroll down and follow the recipe shared by Happy Foods Tube.

Ingredients 
1 Bottle Red Wine (750 ml)
1 Orange
1 Lemon
A Few Ginger Slices
10 Cloves
10 Cardamon seeds
2 Cinnamon Sticks
100ml Rum (Brandy or Whisky) – optional
4 Tablespoons Sugar
1 Teaspoon Orange Zest
A Handful of Raisins
A Handful of Almonds

Makes: 4 portions
Preparation: Preparation 10 minutes + Cooking Time 15 minutes


Directions
Pour the wine into a saucepan, add cloves, cardamom seeds, 2-3 slices of ginger, cinnamon sticks and sugar. Throw in about a teaspoon of orange zest, 2-3 orange slices as well as lemon slices. Pour in freshly squeezed orange and lemon juice. For a lighter version add 100ml of water.

Bring to the boil, let the sugar dissolve and reduce the heat to the lowest point.

Let it simmer slowly for 15 minutes so the spices have time to infuse the wine (make sure it’s not boiling otherwise you could end up with a non-alcoholic version).

Right before the end pour in rum (optional).

Meanwhile:
Roughly chop some almonds and throw them altogether with some raisins into mugs or heatproof glasses and pour over strained wine.

Garnish with an orange slice and serve hot/warm. Don’t forget the spoons so you can fish out the almonds and raisins!
