Fall snack mix

I put together a little snack mix for all the kids teachers and helpers.  The only thing I had to buy was candy corn, all the rest was snacky stuff that we always have on hand.

Candy corn

Pretzels

Cheese-its

Peanuts 

Honey roasted peanuts

Dried cranberries

Golden raisins

Eyeball the amounts and mix together.   Enjoy!

Valentines Day Food

Too Cute!

From See Kate Sew

We will be doing this for Valentines day dinner!!!

(4 small kids + school night = no romantic dinner for me.)

And this for dessert:

From Bakerella (of course!)

Pumpkin Cakes

Are these the cutest things or what? This looks like a fun after school project to do with the kids and something they can give to their teachers.

Fussy Monkey Business has a great tutorial.


(Post note: I finally made these.  Yes it's the 31st, but I did it.  I bought a mini bunt pan just for this!  They are sooo cute.  I'm giving them to my Steering Team (MOPS) and one to each of the kids teachers.  I wrapped them in pumpkin cello bags and had the kids make cards.  One piece of advice (might be a no-brainer to the bakers out there)...wait for them to completely cool before putting the chocolate bar in.  Even slightly warm the bar melts into the pumpkin. :)
