Alliteration is fun. Just ask my host for today, Sarah! (She
is the master. ;) ) I was flattered that she requested I write a guest post for
her blog, and excited when I found out what she wanted me to write on!
Now that the holidays are in full swing, the heady rush of
Christmas has been taunting me. There are so many amazing seasonal ingredients
and foods. But there IS one that stands out among the rest...
You could even say
There is
One
to rule them all. *Dramatic music*
Go ahead. Shake your head at my cheesy, well-timed pun. We
all know you must not like puppies and kittens and happiness.
Anyway-
is
Peppermint!
A few facts:
First used medicinally, peppermint was and still is used for
a variety of minor ills, including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain,
indigestion, irritable bowel, and bloating.
Peppermint extract and essential oils are used to flavor ice
cream, toothpaste, candy canes, and myriads of other items.
I've put together a list of the many peppermint-themed,
flavored, and related Do-it-Yourself items. Just click on the links under the
pictures!
