Stow Christmas Spices In Glass Spice Jars
Forget the freezing weather and constant sniffles that winter brings, long enough to count down five of the most popular Christmas spices (according to Top 10 Christmas Herbs and Spices) to throw in your glass spice jars this year. Rue - How many evergreen herbs can you name? I can't name many, but thanks to this countdown I now know that Rue falls into this category. Presented in both natural and dried forms, rue is commonly used in religious events. Rue is even known to ward off evil forces. So, in the case that you have a paranormal squatter, load a few glass spice jars with rue and get that ghost out of there! Cinnamon - Cinnamon is the embodiment of winter; it's in every detail of the snowy season. Whether you're caroling about it in the frigid streets, sprinkling it on a sheet of cookies below a rack full of glass spice jars or simply sipping from a glass of cinnamon apple cider while gazing at a cinnamon centerpiece, it's everywhere you look. Be sure to keep your spice jars full of cinnamon this season. Frankincense - I had never heard of Boswellia trees before I started researching Christmas spices. And I sure would not have guessed that the Boswellia tree was responsible for bearing frankincense. Known for its mention in the story of Jesus' birth, frankincense sort of looks like popcorn in glass spice jars. Aside from looking similar to a tasty treat, frankincense is often used in religious practices and in baptismal oil. Ginger - My family and I build gingerbread houses together every Christmas. Without ginger we wouldn't be able to create such decorative, edible works of art. And without glass spice jars full of ginger, coffee shops around the world would be unable to mix-up and serve ginger-based beverages. The world would go into mourning. Stock up on glass spice jars and keep ginger close always! Sage - When you think of sage you probably think of sagebrush. Not the prettiest most festive image. I bet you didn't know that collecting glass spice jars full of sage could be beneficial in terms of achieving longevity. Sage is often referred to as the herb of immortality. Keep this stuff near you and you're bound to live a long life, right? As the holiday celebrations grow nearer try to remember the true meaning of Christmas for yourself. Add a splash of flavor to your holiday while finishing your last minute shopping and remember to pick up a case of glass spice jars. You never know when some glass spice jars will come in handy.
