Hot soup for a chill evening:)


Hello....Happy to meet you all once again in 2015 at blog land. Hope all welcomed  2015 in grand manner. It is wonderful to see many sharing their beautiful tables and other decor posts in their blogs. This is my first post this year.

I had two surprises this New year in blog land as Marty of 'Stroll Thru Life' and Karin of 'The Style Sisters' featuring my New Year table  in their blogs. It was a lovely feeling and I am glad.

These are the days of chill weather here  and it also encourages you to have a cup of hot tea or bowl of hot soup in the evenings.  The season also allows you to see beautiful colourful flowers all around you. The flower shops and the markets are flooded with pretty flowers and you are tempted to pick few of them when you go out. I was delighted to see and buy the cheery big yellow Chrysanthemum which I used for my soup table setting.

200th post at Crystal Grandeur!

This is my 200th post at Crystal Grandeur!  As a profound blogger it is a moment of joy for me as well.   It has been a wonderful journey all along.  Crystal Grandeur blossomed in November 2011 with Diwali & Christmas decors and it is my small world where my imagination and creations comes to reality.  I admire some of the blogs crossing 400+ posts. I appreciate and thank them for influencing others to do the same.  Speaking of my love for decors and styling I enjoy exploring different aesthetics and incorporate them in my decors and tablescapes. It helps me to keep moving forward  with new and fresh ideas  and doesn't let me be stagnant to one particular style.    For a nostalgia kick i share with you all... my delightful moments at Crystal Grandeur. Receiving appreciation for your creation in the form of comments always touches ones heart. (Sharing some of my past posts sweet comments posted by dear readers from across...

Festive Give Away:)))

  Season Fall is to arrive soon and the season has its own charm in providing us with plenty of seasonal specials. Oranges are best during Fall and they last from beginning of Fall to end of Winter. In our garden plenty of Calamondin oranges started to appear and the fresh smell of the citrus in the air so soothing.  Plucked few of them and made marmalade from the ripen oranges for the morning toast. Also a good idea to make marmalade when the oranges are plenty, fill them in cute little bottles,tie with a ribbon/card and gift it when there is a Fall party or for Thanks giving & festive occasions. Its easy and quick to make and my way of preparing the recipe is given right here.  Cut the calamondin orange to half, remove the pulp and the skin separately. While removing the pulp take away the seeds. Squeeze out the juice from the pulp using a thin cloth . Cut the skin to thin stripes.  Put a heavy bottom pan on the stove and keep on low flame. (For one glass of ju...
