we have a lovely tradition {two years now} of having new years day dinner at my dear friend susan’s home. it is soooooo nice to have dinner at someone else’s house the night after i host this. and, it’s sooooo nice because suzie is one amazing chef! and, it’s sooooo nice to be surrounded by great company!

i was asked to bring fruit this year. due to the large supply of oranges i currently have, i had the idea to turn my oranges into little fruit bowls. i thought they were gorgeous!
sometimes i’m all about food-presentation, and other times, it’s just about how fast i can get my family fed!
…
i cut off 1/3 of the top of the orange, and used my grapefruit knife to scoop out the inner orange. i did 20 oranges in less than five minutes, pretty quick for something cute! i thought this would also be cute for scoops of sorbet…
Love this idea! You never stop creating, do you??
darling! i'm going to steal that idea!
So cute! Stealing that idea!
Those are lovely! But what did you do with all the orange guts?
LOVE the orange cups! So clever and fun!
I love this idea, especially the sorbet twist!
p.s…I think Susan used to be neighbors with my SIL…Sarah Nitta.
Love it! Very crafty I must say. Thanks for an awesome idea. Now just the time and when to serve it. 🙂
You are truly so creative…I love them, they look amazing!
What a great idea! So clever.
rori~ {my dear blog friend}, we ate half the orange-guts and tossed the other half. wasteful, i know. i should plan making my yuja-cha tea at the same time, next time…
