HOLIDAY PARTY "CRACKERS"
"Crackers" are decorative party favors widely used in Great Britain to celebrate a variety of special occasions and festive events. They consist of beautifully wrapped and decorated cardboard cylinder typically containing a tissue party hat, a joke or riddle, a "pop" or snapping device (hence "crackers"), and a small gift or novelty item. At dinners and parties crackers are used to decorate individual place settings and are usually opened prior to serving the meal or refreshments.
I use "crackers" around the holidays for my dinner parties when gathering friends or family to celebrate. They add a festive flair to my dinner table. Kids AND adults like "popping" them open and seeing what is inside. They add a fun and festive flair to evening! We purchased a nice assortment of crackers this year for the market and I'm particularly excited to "crack" open the musical instruments at a dinner party this Friday - little instruments and music sheets included! Get ready Mary, Tina, Maddy and Susan (and the guys)!

LA SALAMANDRA DULCE DE LECHE MOUSSE RECIPE
Now available at Grand River Grocery, we love this handcrafted, artisan quality dulce de leche. La Salamandra is a farmhouse dulce de leche that originates in Argentina. This means it is made with the freshest milk, does not contain chemical additives or preservatives, maintains all the natural virtues of fresh milk, and has a taste and consistency that have no comparison - seriously! Fabulous on ice cream, brownie sundaes, stirred into coffee or hot cocoa and for a special breakfast - serve it with crepes!
