The holiday season is still upon us. Do you have several coworkers and/or a few holiday gatherings to attend?  ShortbreadSwee-T’s Shortbread Cookies are a cute and simple gift that are great when you need multiple gifts and are perfect for the hostess that has everything. Shortbread lovers will enjoy them.

Shortbread pairs well with champagne and several other sparkling wines (Trader Joe’s). Last year, I gave a dear friend a large cup of ShortbreadSwee-T’s ShortBits and a great (but inexpensive) wine. It also pairs with tea, milk, and hot chocolate.

This year, I bought personalized designer sticky notes (Vistaprint.com) for each one of my colleagues. I attached each packet of sticky notes to a small cup of ShortbreadSwee-T’s ShortBits. The simple gift was a hit.

Gift options can be limitless.  Try miniature lotions and shower gels (Avon.com or BathandBodyWorks.com) or attach movie tickets or a gift card. Whatever you do, stay fun, stay creative, and enjoy your holidays.

Peace  & Blessings.

New Year’s Eve Shortbread and Champagne, Oh My!

ShortBits and Champagne

Shortbread cookies aren’t just for coffee, tea and milk.  This New Year’s Eve, I plan on toasting the new year with shortbread cookies and champagne.  I’m keeping it simple, and my dainty ShortBits and sparkling white wine are a perfect combination for entertaining.

Are you looking for a great “small gathering” idea?  How about a “cookie exchange party” or a “wine and dessert tasting party”?  Try serving shortbread cookies with your favorite sparkling wine or champagne.

“Shortbread is a good match for a sparkling wine or blanc de blanc Champagne” (BrandonSun.com) .

“A dry champagne cuts through the rich, buttery flavor of the cookie” (SeattleTimes.com).

Shortbread and Champagne is a delectable delight (not too sweet, not too dry).  I’m looking forward to sipping champagne and nibbling on ShortbreadSwee-T’s ShortBits while sitting by the fire with friends and family.

Peace and Blessings and Happy 2012! —{-@
