Met at a friend's house the other day to learn to make a kissing ball. They had made them before but this was a first for me. Didn't realize that the base of the ball is as small as an orange. They said that the juice from the orange would keep the greens good. In seeing the orange size I never would have believed the size these become.
Supplies were put out ...
can't forget to mention the peppermint tea and fresh from the oven cornbread. It was delightful!
I have declared this a tradition. What a lovely way to have shared time with friends.
This truly makes for a Merry Christmas memory.
May your weekend be merry and bright.
How lovely, Gloria, and what a fun thing to do with good friends! :D

ReplyDeleteThis sounds so interesting. I've put cloves in an orange, and that makes a lovely pomander, but I've not tried this!
