A Hostess Gift with Heart #sponsor #giveaway

By
This sponsored post is written by me on behalf of Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi. All opinions are my own. 

Between Halloween and Epiphany, we receive a lot of invitations for dinner parties, birthday parties, cocktail parties, and cookie decorating parties. A lot of parties. If there's a theme to be had, someone I know is throwing a party about it.

My default hostess gift is a nice bottle of wine, but I always think they might feel obligated to open the bottle to share right then. It seems a little self-serving, as if to say - "Here, I brought you something, now uncork this baby and let me have a glass."

When I was asked to review the Woodbridge Harvest Wine Set, I thought, "Eureka! This is a hostess gift that they can enjoy long after all the guests have gone and the dishes are put away." And, if you like, you can still include a bottle of wine!

The Woodbridge Harvest Wine Set is a limited-edition kitchen set that includes an apron, pot holder and wine tote. Even better, all of the proceeds benefit AmpleHarvest.org, a charity fighting hunger in America by providing fresh food to those in need.

The kitchen set is ideal for holiday entertaining, serving as the perfect hostess gift with some longevity. The set is available on Amazon.com from now through the end of the year, the Woodbridge Harvest Wine set is a gift with heart.

I received a set to review and was delighted with the quality of the fabric, thickness of the oven mits, and - yes, I am actually going to say it - it's cute! But it's not too cute that a man wouldn't wear it. Adorable and useful. That fits my criteria for being in my kitchen! I've already ordered another set to give to my mom when she and my dad host Christmas for the big extended family.

    If it is a Holiday I try to get something representing said Holiday. Perhaps candles, towels or a candy dish or cookie plate, filled of course. If it is not for something special then of course wine and/or flowers.

    I typically bring a bottle of wine. Sometimes I bring a unusual plant or food item depending on the occasion.

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

By
photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream

By
As we headed inland from the coast, I cringed as the temperature gauge in the car for outside temp climbed into the triple digits. Ugh. I'm a rather wimpy central coastal Californian who begins to wilt when it's 70 degrees outside. Thank goodness for air conditioning and a planned ice cream stop. When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat. But we were going to enjoy the cool, sweet treats from Frozen Art first! Michoacana ice creameries are the equivalent of Starbucks in Mexico; they're ubiquitous. Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo. It's estimated that almost ninety percent of the Tocumban population is currently employed in the ice cream business from making ice cream itself to making equipment. But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
