Food, Crafts and Fun
I love snail mail. I love getting it! I love sending it! I love everything about mail (except all the bills that I get. There’s nothing I like about that!) With all the changing technology it’s so easy to just send a text or an email. I’m guilty of that. But I’ve always been a […]

Well, crud. I lied. I thought we were done doing our Easter baking but when I saw the recipe for Creamy No Bake Mints over on For Such A Time As This we just had to make them. I love chocolate and mint together. And they are kind of Eater-y, right? I mean, I dyed […]

This might be the last of our Easter treats for this year. But seriously, don’t hold me to that. Sometimes we just bake on a whim so there might be more =o) So guess where I saw this cute idea. Give up? It’s another Family Fun magazine idea. I am totally in love with that […]

We’ve started making Easter goodies at our house (can you tell???). Any excuse for us to bake and I’m in! But it was Spring Break two weeks ago so my daughter wanted to help me do some baking. My son wanted to help “kind of” he said. But not if it interfered with his Wii […]

I don’t even need to tell you why I made these, right? I mean, look at them. How could they not be delicious? They have all the right ingredients: cookie, Cadbury Cream Egg, frosting and M&Ms. I’m drooling just typing that. They were pretty easy to make and I can’t thank Katrina enough for posting […]

Do you dye Easter eggs? Some people do and others (I’ve heard) think it’s just a big mess so they avoid it. We are one of those that do. My kids love dying Easter eggs. But what the heck do you do with all those eggs? We hard boil some. My son loves hard […]

I love Easter. I love everything about Easter. Call me crazy, but I do. Now that April Fool’s Day is over I can concentrate 100% on Easter. Yeah! My kids have already asked when we are going to dye Easter eggs. We might do that today in fact.One thing I can’t do is create things […]

I am totally loving all of the great April Fool’s Day things people have posted the past couple of weeks! I love the pranks but mostly I love the fun food. You didn’t miss our Fakin’ and Eggs I hope! (We’re all about fun food at our house!) So we wanted to pack in two […]

I saw this recipe awhile ago on the Pillsbury website (here) and knew I had to make it. I kind of have a thing for s’mores. Or maybe it’s just chocolate and marshmallows together. Either way, I love them. And this recipe surely didn’t disappoint! It was quite tasty (as I sit here and type […]

There are just certain blogs that I love. The recipes are good, I enjoy their sense of humor and the recipes are good. Did I already mention that one? Monster Mama is one of those blogs for me. I just love what Mickey makes and has to say. So when I saw this recipe on […]

Normally by now I’ve posted a few Thanksgiving fun food recipes. Apparently I’m a little slow this year. I can’t believe this is our first (and only one!) But it is a fun one. How cute are these little guys? I thought my kids would have a great time making these. I bought all the […]

My daughter’s pre-school class has been learning Japanese all year. It’s so cool to hear her speak and she is so proud when she comes home and tells me the new words she has learned. At the school’s Spring Fling Bar-B-Que her class sang “Jesus Loves Me” in Japanese! In Japanese!!! She’s 5 years old! […]
I can’t believe it’s October 10th and this is only our first Halloween post. Eeeee gads! I’m behind! I need to get my behind in gear and Halloween it up. So, to kick off one of the greatest Holidays known to man…. here are our Sugar Wafer Monsters. If you haven’t checked out Sugar Swings! […]
I can’t believe it’s the middle of October and I haven’t even posted a Halloween recipe or crafts yet. Ugh. Life is a little overwhelming right now but I’ve decided to kick it into gear and get my Halloween on. So the first Halloween recipe for this year is for Candy Corn Cookies. Aren’t they […]
Have you ever just wanted to give someone a finger??? Not the finger… a finger. Ha! I crack myself up sometimes. (I’m hoping that’s not a bad thing….) I found this great finger pan from Wilton last Halloween but never got a chance to use it. So it was calling our name from the […]
Halloween means fun food, right? At least in our house it does. I have to spice it up a little for my kids. So how could I not make these bloody band aide cookies??!! I saw these over on Pinterest (who got them from Katherine Marie Photography.) Do you pin? If not, you are so […]
Here is an easy and fun treat for the kids. They didn’t turn out as cool as I had hoped. I think it was because there was so many bubbles in our 7 Up. But the kids didn’t seem to mind. PrintGummy Bear Popsicles Ingredients7 Up Gummy BearsInstructionsLet your 7 Up sit out for […]
