My sister mixed up a batch of these for Thanksgiving day, and it was the perfect start to a delicious meal. We took the pomegranate margarita recipe that we have and just swapped out the juice. Oh hello deliciousness. Honestly I don’t need a special occasion to drink a margarita so I will be making these many more times. I also love that these fit in perfectly with my favorite time of year.
Since it is my favorite time of year, and the season for giving, I thought it would be a great time to do a giveaway! My wish list has been growing, and on it is a cute, but good rolling pin. I saw this one recommended in one of my magazines, and immediately sent it to Blair for a stocking idea. We are only filling each other’s stockings and exchanging ornaments this year since we consider our new house our present. So I thought it might be fun to share some of the love with you guys.
