Holiday Desserts for The Young + Young at Heart

Entertaining over the holidays? What a great surprise for your guests. I would fill a round glass container with all red m+m's or jelly beans and then place the sticks in for easy serving and a clean presentation.

From one of my favorite baking blogs... Bakerella.

Christmas Trees Around The World

I received an email today that had the most beautiful photographs of Christmas trees from around the world and I wanted to share some of my favorites...

My absolute favorite by far, this is a tiny chapel in Germany 's Karwendel mountains

Prague's Old Town Square

This is the largest Tree in Europe and is located in Lisbon , Portugal

Madrid. On Dec. 22, a lucky citizen
will win El Gordo (the fat one), the world's biggest lottery.

"The world's largest Christmas tree display rises up the slopes
of Monte Ingino outside of Gubbio, in Italy 's Umbria region.
Composed of about 500 lights connected by 40,000 feet of wire,
the 'tree' is a modern marvel for an ancient city"

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Warm wishes to all for a meaningful and joyous New Year!

This is why every Bride should wear a Veil.

Any Senior TRE Blog Readers recognize these guests? We assisted them with their wedding last summer in Old Lyme . As a matter of fact, KD+J Botanica and

Looking fabulous are Emily and Matt [ still newlyweds]. It was great to work with Katherine and Benedicte again. Benedicte shot all of the amazing photographs above.
