Here’s another item to add to the list if you’re looking for something to bring the hostess this holiday or maybe just a stocking stuffer.
Peppermint Shot Glasses.
No, not shotglasses for Peppermint Schnapps, these are shot glasses that are made from peppermint sticks.
Sooo cute.
I saw them today at both Urban Outfitters (you can order online) and Cost Plus World Market (a dollar cheaper). As a side note, I’ve also seen plenty of chocolate liqueur cups which are great for serving dessert cognac. If you’re looking for a way to add candy to a mixed drink (besides a lemon drop to a lemon martini or cinnamon imperials to a sweet martini) you might want to check out the new Twizzler Strawz.
They’re made for Slurpees and are just regular Twizzlers that are bigger so you can use them like a straw and get added flavor (and eat them). For cocktails, just snip them in half for a martini glass or lowball.
SUPERB

Commenting is not available in this channel entry.I saw an article online the other day that showed you how to make those yourself: http://boulderdirt.com/features/article.cfm/5029
I was going to post it, but since you beat me to it
and, oddly enough….I watched Mary Poppins today (that’s where the song comes from).

Cute! I’m wondering if I know somebody who would enjoy these… and wonder how they would hold up to hot chocolate! Is Cost Plus $1 cheaper than the “now $3.99” price, or the “was $9” price at Urban Outfitters?
