Holiday Treats

Holiday Treats

Tis the season to share with others your

gratitude for their friendship and love.  One of my

favorite things about the holiday season is giving (and receiving)

delicious homemade goodies.  Date balls always remind me

of Christmas and my grandmothers who made them each year.

Hope you enjoy this recipe and everyone at Evelyn's

wishes you and your family a wonderful Christmas and

a blessed New Year.

Date Nut Balls

1 Stick of butter                                        1 C. granulated sugar

1 Egg beaten                                             1 C. chopped dates

1/2 C. chopped nuts                                  1 tsp. vanilla flavoring

2 1/2 C. Rice Krispies                               Coconut

Melt butter in medium saucepan.  Mix beaten egg, dates (I put mine in the food processor), sugar, and nuts then add to the melted butter.  Cook on medium.  Bring to a boil and cook for about 3 minutes or until it thickens.  Remove from head and add vanilla and Rice Krispies.  Cool and shape into balls (I spray Pam on my hands because it will be very sticky).  Roll in coconut.  

Enjoy!!

GUEST  TOWEL

WINE  BOTTLE  WRAP

 Fall has arrived and so has holiday entertaining.  One of our favorite hostess gifts to give is a bottle of wine wrapped in one of our unique guest/kitchen towels.  These are so easy to put together and your hosts will love it!

First, lay out one of our fun guest towels and fold in half .

Second, lay a bottle of wine on the folded guest towel on the reverse design side then wrap around the bottle.

Third, use a rubber band and wrap around the bottle and guest towel near the top (but not neck) of the bottle.  Fold the top part of the guest towel down covering the rubber band and you are finished!   

Your hosts will think you are a creative genius!

This will work with all our seasonal guest/kitchen towels.

Have fun and come in the shop today and let us inspire your creativity.
