A gift for my sweet tooth partner !
It was Kev's 60th birthday yesterday 20th of January. So I got a 2 litre glass jar, one I used to brew kombucha in ..As I use a 10 litre glass container for that now..I made a label and stuck it on with double sided tape ..I love double sides tape ..but I've probably mentioned that a few times on blog posts already ...its fabulous stuff...one more time yay for double sided tape..I was lucky enough to get a $20 voucher from a store that sells these ouzo lollies made in Greece..So I spent a little extra and bought 2 kilo of them..I bought some for Kev for Christmas and he loved them .. ..So to fill the jar I used 1 kilo of them ..I was thinking I could keep refilling the jar as he eats them so it appears like a never ending jar of lollies or I could put the other kilo a way for either next birthday or Christmas..or if I need a gift during the year I could fill a few more jars and give them as gifts ..either way they are put away until needed at some later stage..I gave it to him yesterday but it was empty and I said its filed with love...The lollies arrived today in the mail so when he gets home he can have them..like 2 gifts in one ...lots of sugar and lots of love ..Happy 60th my love ...
Just another great, simple, easy gift for some one you love..
Sweet! I've never heard of these candies.

DeleteOuzo lollies, oh yum! I don't drink but have tasted Ouzo and can imagine the taste as a lollie. Happy Birthday Kev.
