Food, Crafts and Fun

And what a fantastic way to use these deliciously awesome pumpkin pie marshmallows! Try them. Enough said. Pumpkin Pie Rice Krispie Treats Source: Baking Bites Graham Cracker […]

My kids and I love Halloween. I’m not sure what it is about the holiday (yes, we call it a holiday in our house)that we love the most. For me and my son it’s the fun Halloween food that we make. For my daughter (who has a sweet tooth the size of Texas) it’s the […]

How have I not gotten on the Biscoff bandwagon before now?!?! I’ve seen it all over blogland but I wasn’t sure really what it was. It sounded weird and I wasn’t sure if it was like Nutella. I know so many people love it. But I’m not a huge fan. Then I won this adorable […]

What do you pack in your kid’s lunch when they don’t eat sandwiches? No really, I’m asking. Because all last year I struggled. There isn’t a microwave at their school so what in the world was I going to give them every day to eat for lunch? It wasn’t until around April that I discovered […]
[Continue reading...]I pretty much love giveaways! But this giveaway? This one is one of those “this is so darn cool” kind of giveaway that I can hardly contain myself. Yep, that’s how I roll. When we made our Unicorn Poop Cookies we thought they were fun and cute and totally awesome. A reader commented on them, […]

When your kids have other kids sleep over, how do you entertain them? Our last big sleepover we made Baked Mini Donuts and I gave all the kids facials. It was a hoot! But how do you compete with that? Well, with Churros and hair rollers of course! Baked Churros Source: Monster Mama * 1 […]

Here I go again. Are you ready? I love fudge!!! I do. There you have it. It calls my name at night when I’m trying to sleep. “Erin, I’m downstairs. Come and get me.” It’s best that I don’t have it in my house very often because I eat it… all! Are you a fudge […]

Yep, more donuts. We had to make chocolate donuts when we made our Baked Donuts with Maple Frosting. I’m a chocolate fan. My kids, not so much. But their friends helped me gobble these up! Baked Chocolate Glazed Donuts Source: Cookin’ Up North * 1 cup flour * 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder * 1 tsp. […]

I remember making this years and years ago for a friend’s children. It was pretty cool (I thought) so my kids and I thought we would make it again for some friends. It’s super easy and it’s fun to do! What you will need: * any kind of clear bowl. We used a fish bowl […]
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 […]
Have you ever seen these things? They are egg molds? Egg what??? Egg molds! I saw them awhile ago and have been wanting to get them to try them out and here they are. Pretty cool looking aren’t they? You’re probably wondering why in the world anyone would want these things though, right? Well, I […]
The aliens are coming! The aliens are coming! I told you that I was going to make dinner time more fun and exciting. How fun is this idea?!?! My kids loved it! This idea came from the cookbook Just For Kids Collection. (If you missed my Octo-Dog post you MUST check it out here!) Here’s […]
I was feeling pretty guilty about my lack of party creativity for my daughter. The necklaces were pretty cute and I knew the girls would think they were fun but I was feeling bad for the boys. Plus I have this whole over-acheiver thing that I deal with. I have a hard time settling for […]
Have you ever seen this before? Is it the strangest thing ever?!?! It looks like it should be in some Star Wars movie or something. (Or do I just not get out enough???) I saw this over at the local fruit and veggie stand. It’s awesome! (The stand, that it.) I wasn’t sure what it […]
Oh, the pressure. My son’s request to make “fun food” every Saturday night for dinner is already getting to me. How do people come up with all these ideas??? Well, however they do it, I’m just grateful they do. That way I can copy them and my kids think I’m amazing =o) Jill over at […]
I’ve decided I love my food markers. I mean seriously. Who ever came up with that idea is a genius. Because we’re having so much fun with them. Who wouldn’t love a cup of this hot chocolate in the morning?! My kids thought it was great. They thought I bought the marshmallows like this. […]
