OMG Worthy Reads, Week 64

We are at the home stretch.  Christmas gifts need to be wrapped and menu’s finalized.  Three of this week’s Worthy Reads may be of help.  Discover how to wrap an odd size gift, make a last-minute hostess gift and read suggestions on what wine will pair with your holiday meal.  Enjoy.

1010 Park Place

It seemed appropriate last week to dedicate my post at 1010 Park Place to Frank Sinatra on his 100th birthday!  Take a minute to visit and enjoy reminiscing about his life.

Recipe of the Week

Need a last-minute hostess gift?  Make some of this Chocolate Cranberry Pistachio Bark from Garnish with Lemon.  It consists of only four ingredients.  Put it in a clear cellophane bag and tie with a pretty bow for a delicious gift.

Learn to Make a Gift Bag from Wrapping Paper

I love how Tasha from Designer Trapped in a Lawyer’s Body made a gift bag from wrapping paper.  We have all been there.  We have an odd size gift and no box or gift bag to fit it.  This is timely with Christmas just around the corner.

Room of the Week

I love plaid, especially in the winter and at the holidays!  This tailored bedroom from Midwest Living is warm and inviting – don’t you agree?

Food & Wine Pairings

If you need some suggestions on what wine to pair your Christmas dinner to, check out the chart below from Fine Dining Lovers.

Thanks for stopping by.  Safe travels to those of you on the road.  Happiest of holidays to everyone.
