Spring Starters:)))

Spring is almost here and we are now being greeted by the colors of Spring. The season gives us the perfect opportunity to enjoy the colors of the season. Also, pastel colors define the look of dining on table setting and on plates. 
Spring/Summer season is a season that makes way for salad & co and they are real eye-catchers and we can always be tempted by new salad ideas. Also, vegetables have never been as fashionable as they are now. From chefs to housewives they are experimenting and coming up with new creative dishes with veggies. Sometimes the imagination really runs wild in presenting them colorfully.  One can arrange them by season too and they are versatile & stars of any season. 
So why not this Spring we invite friends & family for a vegetarian menu where one can play around with a colorful display of salads along with the main course for a fresh & tasty start.
I loved creating a Spring table next to cauliflower & carrot plants and placed a salad plate filled with some of our own grown veggies in the terrace garden.

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.

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...
