- Hey, guys.
Happy Wednesday!
I wanted to let you know for all of you who signed up
for the February Entertaining with Beth subscription box,
your boxes have been shipped and they are on their way.
So if you don't wanna know what's in this month's box
then definitely playlist this video
and you can watch it later.
But for those of you who do wanna know,
let's see what's in February's box.
Now, if you're not a subscriber
to the Entertaining with Beth subscription box
and you wanna get some of these products,
not to worry.
I'll put links to everything I'm gonna show you
in the description.
Okay, first up.
You will each be receiving one of these beautiful
mini cast iron skillets from Lodge.
Those of you who have been following me for some time
know how much I love my cast iron skillets
and Lodge makes the best,
most high quality skillets out there.
These mini skillets are so cute.
They are six inches in size and they are the perfect size
for making my warm chocolate skillet cake for two in,
perfectly timed for Valentine's Day.
So you'll be getting the recipe in the box
and then the video for this recipe will post on Friday.
Now, if you're not a sweet person, not to worry.
This skillet is also perfect
for making my warm spinach and artichoke dip in.
And you'll find that recipe in the description.
Now, because these little skillets are meant to be served
oven to table, I wanted to make sure
that you each had a beautiful trivet
for putting under the skillet.
So the wonderful folks at Cherry Ridge, Incorporated
custom made these incredible little wood trivets for me.
Aren't they gorgeous?
I think they are so beautiful.
They're made from Appalachian walnut and cherry hardwoods
and I think the coloration is just stunning.
And you'll see it fits right under the skillet.
But you can also use these as little cutting boards,
as well.
In fact, I think they're really charming to serve a little
wedge of cheese on maybe with some crackers or you can also
use it if you had to chop some fruit up in a hurry.
I just think you guys are all gonna love them.
Okay, next up.
I had to share something that I'm completely obsessed with
these days, these beautiful hand-woven Turkish towels.
I recently went through a dish towel makeover and got rid
of most of my ratty old dish towels and swapped them out
for these beautiful Turkish towels.
They're so beautifully made from 100% organic cotton
and I just love that beige color
and the herringbone pattern.
They're so absorbent that they make for a perfect dish towel
especially if you're having company over because they look
so nice just hanging in your kitchen
but they're also sophisticated enough
to put in a guest bath.
So I use them as hand towels as well.
They're the perfect size.
Or you could also use them as a tea towel
to place under a tray for a coffee and tea service
or for a bar.
And the best part about them
is they go in the washer and dryer.
The one tip is you do wanna wash it in cold water
to avoid any shrinkage but then you can put it in the dryer.
And then the next product you'll find
is one of my all-time favorite kitchen tools.
It's an ice cream scooper from Zeroll.
And this is hands down the best ice cream scooper
on the planet as far as I'm concerned.
I've owned mine for about 15 years.
They're the type of ice cream scoop that makes
that perfect ice cream ball
and that is due to the way that it's designed.
It has some heat conductive fluid in the handle.
In fact, when you shake it,
you can hear it sounds like water flushing around in there
and that's what allows you to make that perfect scoop
without having to dip your ice cream scooper in hot water.
So in order to really have fun with this scooper,
I had to throw in a recipe for some homemade ice cream.
And you're gonna love this salted caramel ice cream.
It is fantastic.
In the box, you'll find the recipe card to that ice cream
and then in two weeks, I'll also post the video
for that ice cream.
The only thing about this ice cream scoop
that you do need to know, though,
is you can't put it in the dishwasher.
So it is something that you have to hand wash
but that's okay because you will love and cherish
this ice cream scooper as much as I do and you will gladly
hand wash it every time you use it.
And finally, I had to throw in a little something sweet,
one of my favorite products from France.
You'll find these beautiful little Langues de Chat cookies
which are the perfect thing
to garnish your salted caramel ice cream with.
They're called langues de chat because their shape
resembles that of a little cat tongue
and I've always been charmed by this name.
I think it's so cute.
Okay, everybody, that's everything
that's in the February box.
I hope you enjoy these things as much as I have
over the years.
Let me know what you think and I will see you back here
on Friday when we are going to tackle
that fantastic warm chocolate skillet cake just in time
for Valentine's Day.
Alright, I'll see you then.
Bye.
