Fruit Roll-Up Roses

1 Feb

spacer

Perfect for the man, child, or man-child in your life this Valentine’s Day. While we don’t really do the Valentine’s thing in our house, it’s hard to deny the candy aisle this month between the Reese’s shaped hearts, pink and red M&Ms and other heart-shaped boxed goodies. The special shapes, coloring and packaging works wonders for giving you a reason to buy a giant bag of M&Ms that taste no different from the ones in the good ole yellow bag. And, on top of loving holiday-ized candy, I’m also a sucker for making holiday inspired creations. I saw an Etsy tutorial for making roses out of ribbon and my brain instantly decided ribbon roses = Fruit by the Foot/Roll-Up roses. Bonus–these smell awesome.

Recipe Roll January 15-21, 2012

I am lovin having a little catalog via my blog of what I’m cookin up. It’s great to reference later when I need to remember what tweaks I made, and which recipes were a hit or miss. This week’s attempt to get more healthy meals back in the mix after the holiday eating marathon known as Halloween through New Year’s, was much more successful. I even discovered some new favorite recipes.

Sometimes Cards Arghhh Cool!

15 Jan

spacer

Yeah, I went there. But. Have you been to Papyrus lately??? They have some really awesome cards. Cards that make you actually want to take the time to pull out your dusty, hidden pile of stamps, look up a mailing address (probably in your email archives no less), and go to the mailbox. Rough biz. [...]

Recipe Roll: December 18-31

I’ve made it a rough goal to cook at home four times a week….these two weeks will definitely fall short. Between the holidays and traveling, there was not a lot of time for cooking! We did manage to whip up one of the husband’s favorite sandwiches as a party appetizer (sometimes he does have some good ideas). You can also check out what I’ve previously cooked up.

A Festive Fern

24 Dec

spacer

I was raised celebrating Hanukkah, and my husband Christmas. Neither of us are religious and only participate in holidays you celebrate with good food or (for me at least) fun decorations. So Thanksgiving is our favorite holiday. I’ve had a hankering to decorate a tree this year. I’ve never had a tree, but I’ve offered to get one each year for the husband (he always declines my offer). Maybe it was the newlywed fuzzies, a major crafting bug, or just an urge to buy a tree curbside from a corner deli, but this year I decided I’d finally get us one…a little NYC apartment sized one.

Make Your Own Reese’s

12 Dec

spacer

If you’re a Reese’s cups fan, you know the seasonal shapes taste THE best. Specifically, the eggs, trees and hearts. Maybe it’s the ratio of chocolate to peanut butter, the softer outer chocolate shell (notice the bells don’t taste as good!), who knows, but they just taste better!
