(NAPSI)—You don’t have to let the cold and dark get you down: You can celebrate the season with a party. Whether you just invite a few friends for drinks and snacks or go for a sit-down dinner—or if you’re a guest at someone else’s soiree—the planning and anticipation can be almost as enjoyable as the evening itself. Here are some hints that can help:
• For your centerpiece, you can get a Welcome Winter Margarita. It’s a popular cocktail bouquet, filled with a blizzard of crisp white blooms, inspired by the serene beauty of the season. Fresh white roses, Stargazer lilies, poms and carnations mix and mingle with pinecones and silvery accents in an oversized margarita glass to toast birthdays, snow days or any day in a truly original way.

• For a great hostess gift, there’s the Popcorn Factory Snowflake 2-Gallon, 3-Flavor Popcorn Tin. Popcorn cheer and a jubilant Snowflake design combine to form a tasteful treat for any popcorn lover and friends. The flavors include butter popcorn, cheese popcorn and caramel popcorn.

• To host a fine wine tasting or give to your favorite wine connoisseur, there’s the Uncommon Distinction Wine Market Basket. A stunning market basket holds a Cabernet and a Chardonnay, a unique wine bottle-shaped wood cutting board, serving napkin, a set of acrylic wine glasses, delicious chocolate wafer rolls, Cabernet cheddar cheese spread, water crackers, cashews and more.
You can get it from www.1800baskets.com/uncommon-distinction-wine-market-basket-149043.
• Getting a warm welcome from those thirsty for something more is a selection of iconic hot winter drinks from Harry & David. The Harry & David Holiday Beverages package includes two seasonal coffee gift favorites, Harry’s Christmas Blend and Pumpkin, plus peppermint cocoa and the popular spiced tea for a season’s worth of warm drinks.
