Food, Crafts and Fun
Oh my gosh! Are you ready for another totally fun thing to send in the mail? And how perfect are these for Valentine’s Day? Do they look like real sugar cookies? Ha! They’re postcards! They look like cookies, don’t they??? I love them! I can’t wait until my friends and family open their mailboxes and […]

I have a love/hate relationship with Valentine’s Day. I mean, I’m all for Holidays. Any reason to sit around and eat chocolate and I’m in. But Valentine’s Day? It’s a single person’s nemesis. I mean really. What better way to point out the fact that you have no one. That’s the hate part. Wow, I’m […]

It’s no secret that I love to send snail mail. I send out cards at every opportunity. I just think it’s nice to get something in the mail other than bills. Right? But what’s better than a card? I’m here to tell ya’! How about getting an Ice Cream Sandwich Postcard in the mail? Yep, […]

We’re not big football fans in my house. Meaning, we never watch it. EVER. But on Superbowl Sunday we flip back and forth to catch the score and see what great commercials they have come up with. Don’t read too much into this. It’s not like I want to know the score. I just want […]

A friend posted this on Facebook so I instantly saved it to my wall. It linked back to a Facebook page and I’m not totally sure how to do that on here so I’m linking to a link I found on Pinterest here. I was more than a little skeptical when I first saw this […]

At my work Christmas party we do a gift exchange. It’s always a hoot and by far the best part of the party. But each year I struggle with what to buy. I want it to be perfect and highly “steal-able”. (It’s one of those gift exchanges.) The booze and the coffee are always big […]

If you love fudge as much as I do, you can’t get enough. I love that there are so many flavors out there and my new mission in life is to try them all. Yep, a fudge marathon. What do you think? Yeah, you probably shouldn’t answer that. On my quest for the perfect fudge […]

Did you miss my Secret recipe Club post last month? Me too. Group C took the month of December off so we could celebrate the holidays and not stress about what to make and post. It was a great break (and holiday) but now we’re back! My assignment this month was Lisa’s blog, Authentic Suburban […]

How fun are these? A friend asked me to watch her kids the other day so she and her husband could spend the day together to celebrate their anniversary. How could I ever say no to that! And I just love her kids! I always like to plan a fun craft to do (to help […]

I’m not sure about other parts of the country but where I live, loom bands are the rage. Both my kids got one for Christmas (yes, even the boys are loving them) and it’s been a bracelet making factory in my house ever since. If you haven’t heard of this new fad, a Loom Band […]

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 […]
My Mom called me the other day and asked if I would bring a fruit tray to the family gathering we were having. To me, this was an open invitation for some fruit creativity. I mean, I could have just sliced up some fruit and plopped it on a plate. But really??? That’s not how […]
My son wanted a Nerf birthday party. Do you know how hard it is to find Nerf party things out there??? It’s darn near impossible. Tiffanee over at One Crazy Cookie made our Nerf Birthday Party Invitations which were a giant hit! I don’t know how she does it but she is a computer […]
I have a confession to make. You know those little recipe books that you always see in the check out stand? They are usually themed – Halloween, Christmas, cookies, crockpot recipes. You know the ones. I am addicted to them. Yep, I said it out loud. I love them. I love looking through them and […]
I know today is November 1st and Breast Cancer Awareness month was October but I just had to share this one with you. Plus today is “Wear Pink” day at my school. So, of course I had to bring cookies to help celebrate! And not just any cookies… Mammo-graham cookies. Ha! Get it?! Mammo – […]
I have decided that April Fools Day is one of my favorite holidays. Sounds a little strange maybe but fun food and me? Yep, we go together like peanut butter and jelly. And April Fools Day screams fun food. So what do you think about our Deviled Eggs? Who doesn’t love deviled eggs, right? Oh […]
Because, really… isn’t everything better on a stick? Heck yeah! And how cute are these little mummy heads? I just loved them. We gobbled up our Mummy Twinkie Pops (holy smokes, were they good!) And we wanted to do another fun mummy treat this Halloween so we decided on these. Mummy Oreo Suckers Source: How […]
We have another fun and delicious Halloween treat for you today. Aren’t these little guys cute? I’m not sure what my favorite part of them is: the delicious white chocolate coating? Or the mouth watering Oreo Cream Cheese filling? Maybe it’s a tie. We found this recipe over on the The Recipe Critic PrintMummy Cookie […]
