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 and 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 juice, water and sugar the same measurement) Add the juice, water, Orange junillens(desired amount) to the vessel.Stir it with a wooden spatula slowly. When the bubble appears and the syrup starts to thicken switch off the stove. Squeeze a small lemon and mix it well. When it's cool pour inside a sterilised bottle. 

Easy to prepare and a best gift as well to loved ones for the festive give away.

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M...

Sage Green Spring Table:)))

  Hi there....Hope all are enjoying the season Spring. Beautiful to add touches of Spring colours to the decor. A table I created with the palette of  Sage Green table cloth and I defiantly feel the colour is for natural touch. Also pairing them with other soft hues brings sophistication with whatever you are working with. The droopy Plumeria flowers in a rustic green container added charm with the flickering candles for a relaxed time.   Please visit Our Hopeful Home Please visit Nap on the porch
