Beviamo alla nostra! Prosecco Superiore and Happy Christmas! #ItalianFWT

I'm a little sad right now, as I am one to plan celebration after celebration during the holiday season. I have several groups of friends, and I love them all so much and one of the ways I like to show it is to cook and plan parties for them.  Finding ways to keep up the holiday spirit has been hard, even with starting my Christmas decorating early!  I like to celebrate each holiday as its own special day, and with decorating early, I feel like I have really short-changed Thanksgiving.

But now that Thanksgiving is behind us, I am looking for special ways to celebrate Christmas in ways we haven't before.  One celebration I planned was the lighting of the tree.  We purchased a new tree this year and bought our lights separately, so we could get some high tech lights.  I have been playing with the settings and I found the perfect combination of cheer and celebration!  This could become a new tradition!

And, what better way to celebrate than to have a beautiful glass of Val d'Oca Prosecco.  I received a free bottle of which we popped open right before we turned on the lights of the tree and then turned on the house.  Savoring these small but mighty moments!

I am very impressed with the work of Val d'Oca and want you to jump over here to read all their goals for creating wines that help sustain our earth.  It makes me proud to support businesses like this one.

To go with this gorgeous Prosecco, I made a beautiful dessert board designed to bring out the delicious flavors of the wine.  This board contains a Butterscotch pear, pumpkin pie slices, pecan pie stacks, and ripe persimmons.  Mixed in are dark chocolate covered cranberries.  These sweets paired beautifully with the crisp bubbles of the prosecco and lent a truly festive atmosphere to our tree lighting ceremony!

Check out the other celebratory ways to share bubbles this holiday!  Savor the small moments by celebrating in a big way!
