Spring Will Soon Be Here!

Spring will soon be here, and I can't wait. I have seen early signs of Spring with the daffodils and lenten roses blooming. I am sure you are like me and can't wait to take those weekend trips to the beach for some warm sunshine! We have added a new travel luggage in a black and white zebra print that will have you traveling in high style. This wonderful new design is available in a garment cover, rolling duffle bag, overnight bag/purse, and insulated bag. I know you will love it! Our new spring collection of Quilted Keepers will also be arriving very soon.
I have also gotten the spring fever inside. I am painting the two store front windows a wonderful new spring fresh color. Stop by the shop and tell me what you think.
Happy Spring!

Super Bowl Entertaining

Super Bowl Sunday is the perfect time to entertain family and friends. Although football is the reason for the event, everyone comes for the delicious food! Make it simple and enjoy the evening. Choose your favorite team and incorporate the team colors in your entertaining. There are a lot of brightly colored linens you could use, or consider all the festive paper plates and napkins that are available. At Evelyn's, we have some wonderful gourmet sauces that make GREAT snack foods during the game! Our Raspberry Honey Mustard Pretzel dip is DELICIOUS with pretzels! One of our customers introduced us to a wonderful recipe she discovered on the bottle of our Raspberry Salsa. This has become a huge hit in Barnwell. You will be the most popular person at the party when you take this dip.

RASPBERRY SALSA LAYERED DIP

In an oblong casserole, layer 1 can of black beans (drained), add 8oz. cream cheese (cut thin) on top, add 1 small red onion (chopped) on top, add 1 jar Robert Rothschild Raspberry Salsa on top, add 8oz. shredded cheese on top. Bake at 325 for 20 to 30 minutes. Serve with tortilla chips.

Eat some fast because it will not last long! Enjoy your evening!!

Please leave any comments on this or other topics you would like for me to cover.

Thanks!

Valentine's Entertaining

Valentine's Day will soon be here, and what day is more perfect to prepare a romantic dinner? Pull out your fine china, crystal, and silver and make this a very special day. Most people tell me their china is old and outdated. This can be easily brought "up to date" with special accent plates and wonderful table linens. Try mixing your fine china with a modern accent plate. I love the new square plates that are so popular now! Who says you can't put a modern square plate with your traditional china? Your table is the expression of who you are. Don't let etiquette and style gurus dictate how to set your table. Have fun with it and enjoy experimenting with mixing styles to make your unique table!
Question: How many of you (1)love to entertain with your china
(2) only use your china during the holidays
(3) still have it boxed up since your wedding?
Let me know your comments. I will have more entertaing ideas coming soon!
