There are four seasons every year, but I think there can be a multitude of other – smaller – seasons throughout the year that could be marked as well. One season that many of us are just embarking on (if my Facebook is any indication) is holiday baking season! Put on a Christmas movie (the W network is showing them now all the way through the holidays) or turn on some holiday music and you’ve set the scene for an afternoon of baking.
Of course, having special items handy to mark the occasion or a little helper can go a long way to making the baking memorable as well. These items are all available in the latest Avon campaign brochure to order and can be in your hands – and in your kitchen – in no time!
