Too much cellophane for an iPhone to handle a good picture, but you get the idea...count 96 bottles of grenadine on the wall, 96 bottles of grenadine, take one down pass it around 95....
The drink was on us this year, the junior high PTA president asked if I could chair the teacher appreciation this year. I knew it was for birthdays, but I didn't know it included Christmas and a week in May at the time of acceptance to her begging. These PTA presidents are absolute angels in my mind for all the freebie work they do, I couldn't say no to her, or worse yet, to quit. She allowed me to get a committee or partner, so I enlisted my dear friend Margo. And since I thought a gift for 96 staff members would be easier than a breakfast, the above flood of cellophane is what we got ourselves wrapped into. Lots of cello, cute striped and polka dot straws and some beautiful bottles of cherry red grenadine syrup. I'm so grateful I didn't have to haul the 96 bottles of 7-Up that we paired this little package with so they could make Shirley Temples for their holiday guests. I inserted some fun mocktail recipes (including the recipe for the original mocktail, a Shirley Temple) inside the jadeite colored tag. It was reported later that morning that the gifts were quite the buzz in the halls. So happy we merrified the school.
