Panettone Cake

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

My holidays wouldn't be complete without at least one (or half a dozen) Panettone cakes!

Panettone is a sweet, fluffy and fragrant pastry of Italian origin. The soft buttery dough gets its signature taste from candied orange and lemon zest. You'll find an occasional raisin here and there too.

This tall Italian fruit cake goes perfectly with a hot beverage on a chilly winter afternoon.

Try it - you're bound to find a new holiday tradition!

You can find some online but look around locally first. You'll probably find it for way under $10. I have tried many of them and not a single one was disappointing.

Christmas Ale by Great Lakes Brewing Company

First to recommend

Description

Drinking Great Lakes Brewing Company's Christmas Ale is a time honored tradition for me! GLBC is known for their serious brews and this seasonal beer will find a lover in the beer snob and the casual drinker. Though you might have to search for it if you happen to live out of the MidWest, more states are starting to carry it.

If youre on the west coast, try Anchor Steam's version.

What's more charming during the holidays than the warm glow of a candle?

method seasonal products

First to recommend

Description

I am completely in love with method products. I love how they work and how safe they are. On top of it all, they offer a functional product that compliments a modern aesthetic.

For the holidays, they are rolling out some fantastic seasonal scents across their line of products!

How about the idea of washing your hands with frosted cranberry, freshening your rooms with spiced pear and cleaning those counters with peppermint vanilla sound?

hOMe for the Holidays

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

A fun reprieve from the sugary-sweet holiday tunes. hOMe for the Holidays comes from OM Records, an electronic dance music juggernaut based out of San Francisco.

This compilation CD has the typical (as well as some unexpected) tunes, mixed, remixed and reinvented by very talented DJs!

If you like Reindeer Room, you'll love hOMe for the Holidays!

If you want to hear Sinatra and Nat King Cole head to your local mall.

Tazo Joy Tea

First to recommend

Description

Each year, right around thanksgiving, Starbucks brings back one of its wonderful seasonal items. Unlike the sweet gingerbread lattes and peppermint mochas, this tea isn't the usually over the top treat.

Though the name would suggest a festive herbal infusion made with cinnamon, nutmeg and anything else you might fit into a fruit cake, this tea is quite serious.

Tazo Joy Tea is a limited release seasonal blend of rare teas: darjeeling, oolong and green Ceylon teas. The result is a gentle yet sophisticated cup of tea. In ways, Joy combines the best of all the teas in a delightful blend.

I suggest you try it and stock up because you wont see it for another year!
