Pass It On Casserole Dishes

Pass It On Casserole Dishes

Fellowshipping around food is something that the world pretty much understands.  Whether it is dining over a meal at home, church or at a neighbor’s, the word “casserole” or “one pot dish” is a staple when it comes to serving a multitude of people. 

In our family it’s a policy to welcome newcomers in the area.  One thing that our community would do is make a meal or dessert and deliver it in a “pass-it-along” container as we called it.  For a while the dish seemed to go back and forth within our street, but one day it disappeared.  What happened to the community dish?  Someone passed it along to another new family fulfilling its job. 

Helping people feel welcome can be intimidating, but somehow meeting new friends is easier when it’s accompanied by a scrumptious meal or dessert.  Whether it’s holiday time or not, “pass-it-on” casserole dishes warm the heart with cheerful greetings.

If you haven’t tried sharing a “pass-it-on” dish why not start today?  It’s a fun way to make friends, collect new recipes and spread the heartwarming gospel message of Christ.   

P.S.  Don’t forget to fill the dish with something yummy!

Cherry Wood Tea Chest

Beautifully crafted Tea Chest Cabinet, Solid Wood, with closure
Hand crafted solid wood tea chest.
Best Gift for Tea Lovers

My beautiful cherry wood tea chest is one of the best gifts I have ever received. As a matter of fact, it's one of my family's favorites as well.

Something that my mother, sisters and I all have in common is our absolute love for tea. We love it so much that we make sure to have lots of varieties, flavors and brands of it on hand.

When my mother first saw the cherry wood tea chest my husband gave me one year for Christmas, she fell in love with it. Each time she came to my home, she would visit my treasured gift and select a different tea to drink. It was something that we both enjoyed and did it often.

Cherry tea chest has a selection of teas, not including the loose tea always on hand. The tea cup and saucer are from two departed dear friends.

The following year I knew exactly what to get my mom. On Christmas day we presented her with a tea chest exactly like mine (she really wanted one like it). I can still remember how excited she was when she opened her gift.
 
Mother was smiling from ear-to-ear with joy. It made us feel good to be able to give her something actually wanted, and it didn't take her long to put it on display for the entire family to enjoy.

From that day on our tea boxes were always on a cart or table for anyone to use. Mom used hers in her banquet hall for weddings, parties or any celebration. It NEVER was put away in a cabinet. Even on the day of her home going people chose a tea bag from her fabulous assortment or blends.

Why I love this tea chest.


Our solid wood chest is heavy. Raised with only the four corners touching the table or surface.  It is smooth with a glossy finish.

The fact that this tea chest is exquisite is more than enough reason to buy it, but it is also practical. This particular cabinet can hold up to 8 different types of teas.
 
My mom's and mine was a larger version. That's another plus for getting a tea chest, you can get them in different sizes to suit your needs. I have seen some with as little as 4 and up to 24 sections for tea. Some people use the extra slots for packaged sugar packets.
 
The inside of ours is green velvet lining.  Tea leaves sometimes spill in it so you need to vacuum or brush it out at times.

My choice was cherry wood, but there are other nice wooden tea chests as well. Which ever one you choose, it will always be a conversation piece.

Our tea boxes were displayed on beverage carts with glass tops that each of us received from my oldest sister.
 
This was particularly nice because you could house other related items on the same cart without adding clutter to any countertop. Giving a gift like this is sure to be one they don't forget and it will certainly get used.
 
Gold plated hinged handles on both sides.  It's only a few inches tall.

Although most don't come with the selection of teas, ours did. With so many options you are sure to please every tea lover you know.

My mom's cherry wood tea chest is over 20 years old. It still looks good and is as cherished as ever. All photographs are mine.
 
The hinge is hidden on the back of the tea chest.

The tea chest in the introduction (top right of the article) is handcrafted from solid wood and is approximately 14"W X 8.25"W X 4"H. This one has a front closure, mine doesn't.
 
It is smooth on the inside as well as outside. I do not know if this size is lined (sorry), but they usually are as far as I know.
 
There are 8 sections as you saw in the opening photo so you still have a nice sized tea accessory to display. Once you use it, you will probably want to leave it out for guests all the time. Polish with a soft cloth and don't get it wet. If it gets a little dirty just take the bags out and shake out any tea leaves.
 
*Note: The tea chests are assembled. These teas are Gluten free, no calories or carbohydrates. Most teas are a good source of antioxidants as well.

If you enjoy sitting down with a friend over a cup of tea, why not make a great dessert for them.  Try making my Hershey's Chocolate Chip Applesauce Coffee Cake or mouthwatering Chocolate Lover's Cheesecake.  Better yet, what better way to show off your new tea chest than to hold a social or brunch.

Is this a great gift?
