Practically Living: Sweet Treat Housewarming Gift
http://livingpractically.blogspot.com/2013/01/sweet-treat-housewarming-gift.html
Sunday, January 20, 2013. Sweet Treat Housewarming Gift. I took a twist on one of my past posts to make an even easier and more affordable housewarming gift. Just M&Ms and a printable. It cost less than $5 and only took minutes to put together! A few months ago I featured this same printable with homemade baked goods. This time around, I was squeezed for time - like running out the door and remembered that I should probably bring a housewarming gift! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pampering in a Jar.

Wednesday, June 27, 2012. Summer Pops Challenge: Piña Colada Pops. I'm traveling for work this week and a little worried about what Blake and Ferbie are doing at home.

Before I headed off to Chicago, I quick made, and sampled, a pudding pop for the week. I originally found piña colada pops on Our Best Bites. Best cooking blog ever! Thanks to Bla...
