Energizer Bunny's Mommy Reports
It’s cold…brrrr….bring on the Ginger Chai!!
It’s becoming a little nippy here and I’m not really one of those “I love winter” kinda gals. I’d rather be indoors with socks and a sweater on, covered with a nice thick blanket. As soon as the weather gets a little nippy, I just have to have my favorite ‘warmer’ of all….Ginger Chai.(‘Chai’ is what we call tea in India)
We Desi folk are all for Chai….when the weather’s chilly outside or you have some welcome thunder showers, grab a vessel to brew 3 teacups of delish Ginger Chai….
Holiday Traditions - Scandinavian Gløgg | first-time-mommy.com
One tradition the Norwegian people have is Gløgg or Glögg, as the Swedish spell it is more of a Swedish tradition and is a drink that is made during Advent season. Glögg is traditionally made with red wine but there are also non-alcoholic versions, which is the kind we drink. Almonds and raisins are usually added to it but are not necessary. December in Scandinavia is a dark, wintry time, and this hot drink helps keep the spirits cheered.
We actually receive our Gløgg directly from Norway but you can purchase it at Ikea.
Not Martha Just ME :): Memories of Gluwein....
The holidays are fast aproaching and as the weather turns cold fond memories come flooding back of when I was in Germany for the Christmas season. I was 18 and traveling with Up With people… I have always had a strange fascination with Germany, its language, its history, its culture. Sometimes I wonder about reincarnation…
'Manda Blogs About . . .: Holiday Drinks Contest
Lenox and TwitterMoms have a contest going on right now about the best, most creative drinks for the holidays. I love to make my own drinks and combine flavors. You don’t have to add alcohol to mix up a tasty and delicious drink. I have a special hot chocolate drink that I make every year when Christmas is right around the corner.
