I bumped into this super-easy slow cooker recipe a few days ago at Disney.com. My kids loved it so much I thought I’d pass it on!
After taking five minutes to make this garland, love will be simmering in your kitchen! This garland is cute and super easy. All you do is use cookie cutters and turn them into a garland for the kitchen. As a mom, it is easy to forget that I’m preparing and making each meal (that’s nearly 365 times 3 minus a few fast food runs!) with love. So, take five minutes and add a little love to your kitchen!
One of my lifelong dreams is to have a Super Bowl party… and to know who is playing. Unfortunately, a lack of football know-how is one of the symptoms of my all-sister upbringing – that and a need to go to the ladies room in pairs. Yet year after year at this time, I yearn to be like the bulk of our country and have some competitive girls over and have a bonding Super Bowl Chica Fest. In my dream, I envision myself cheering for the underdogs and enjoying the commercials more than the game. Today as I pondered my lifelong goal of hosting a Super Bowl Party, I decided I would plan an imaginary one and have you as my guinea pigs. Here’s what I would do if I were throwing a Super Bowl Party and knew anything about football.
After creating the cupcake doilie skirts last week, my infatuation with paper doilies grew to the point of borderline embarrassment. I’ll spare you the mushy details – just know that paper doilies have rarely been thought of so fondly. I {heart} paper doilies. Currently, my crush is still at the scribble-it-on-the-front-of-my-junior-high-notebook-loud-and-proud stage, so don’t be surprised if there are a few more NFF Valentine doilie crafts in the next few days. Yet without further ado, here is how to make these little Love Note Clips incorporating my craft-crush of the month – the paper doilie.
These will be fun for Valentine’s Day. Secretly tuck a special little Valentine’s note inside the puppet and place it on your valentine’s pillow!
Me and cupcakes. Best friends forever.
I know they have been a hot trend for awhile now and may one day soon be replaced by the bunt cake or rice pudding rage that is coming upon us, but in all honesty, don’t you just love cupcakes? Even though they have just as many calories (or perhaps more) than a slice of cake, you just feel less guilty. It’s a bite sized indulgence every woman deserves more than once in awhile. This week while I was contemplating my BFF, the cupcake, I realized that maybe I needed to take cupcake decorating beyond just toppers. And so I did it and I loved it and now I am sharing. Without further needless wording that you probably skipped over any way, here is how to make these easy extra fluffs of fabulous to your cupcake.

Cherry On Top!
Is your mouth watering? Mine is. I don’t know the reason but somehow by placing a small cherry on top of anything makes it 1000% cuter. It’s an interesting phenomenon because most people don’t even like the cherries BUT the cherry on top makes them want to eat it. Cherries are powerful. The next time I am whipping up some cupcakes or a small dessert, I am going to akip all the fluff of calculated frosting design, sprinkles, and cupcake toppers. I am going to go with a cherry on top.

Fussy Friday: Cupcake Bouquet
With cupcakes all the rage these days, your friends will LOVE LOVE LOVE this cupcake bouquet! Create a few for inspiring baby shower centerpieces or just one as a “get well soon” gift for your neighbor. You could easily downsize or upsize the bouquet to your needs. I think small cupcake bouquets would make the most charming place setting additions. The upsize of this adorable project is 1) your friends will think you are a genius and you will have to agree with them AND 2) although I labeled this a “Fussy Friday”, it really is not as difficult as it looks! And you know how I love that. Here is how I made mine.

Soak Up Summer!
Believe it or not, those hot summer days by the pool are slipping by! So, get out there and create a few memories which would be worth the wrinkles you would get if you didn’t wear sunblock (but, of course, you will).

“A White Suit Coat and a Pink Carnation…”
Zac Posen demonstrating that a silk cravat and a pink carnation boutonniere can still be hot , umm, I mean, attractive for Valentine’s Day or not!
Just admit it girls: that old country song of Mary Robbins’ about a cowboy’s love lost while wearing a pink carnation plucks at the heart strings as much as Joaquin Phoenix did wearing those sexy black wranglers acting as Johnny Cash in Walk the Line. Carnations and country music have been misunderstood by many for years. But, to the savvy, both have their own special romantic touch that can add to your Valentine’s day!
