Day 312 – Peppermint Nights

Lately I have seen so many advertisements and displays at the stores all involving peppermint. I have always loved peppermint but I do especially love it this time of year. It’s so festive looking and tasting. Everything from candy, tea, coffee and hot cocoa, ice cream, cookies, candles  and so much more all involving peppermint and I just love it!

So for today’s intention, I decided to create a “peppermint night”, a festive and yummy display for the family. Not only did I bring out the wine bottles and mason jar I painted last year that went perfectly, I also filled a truffle vase with mints and put a Poinsetta plant in the middle for a neat twist on a plant display. I also included peppermint cocoa with marshmallows, brownies with whip cream and crushed peppermint on top, yogurt peppermint pretzels, Lindor peppermint truffles, peppermint Junior Mints, peppermint Andes and of course….mini minty candy canes!!!

I set it up after dinner. We all snacked a bit and enjoyed the tasty treats but surely have plenty left over to last a while. The red and white was such a nice splash of color and makes me want to decorate early for Christmas this year. This was a tasty, cute and fun intention. #HGAL #embracethemint
