I'm in Love

Found this when I woke up this morning.  My husband loves me. :0)

Valentine Oreo's

Pinterest had them in heart shapes but I was lazy.  I am loving the filling recipe I got on here though.  It uses a lot less sugar and marshmallow cream.  I think I've found a winner.

Valentine Purse

 I love making Valentine's!  I love making Valentine boxes.  This year, I didn't get to make one with my boys.  One got to do it at school and the other is getting to old for that kind of thing I guess.  But, I made this for my daughter to take to school today to put her Valentine's in.

It is just craft foam cut out and sewn together with boondoogle cord.

Pretty smart huh. :0)

Banana Muffins

We have gotten a ton of banana's lately.  We have eaten them all.  I've not even had some left to make banana bread with.  But there was one and I really wanted to try this new recipe from Pinterest.

SO GOOD!

Love them and can't wait to make them again.  I liked that I only needed one banana and I think I'll put just a bit more pecans in the next batch.

Home-made Valentines

 Again, thanks to Pinterest, I had the desire to make all my kids Valentines this year.  I have 3 in school.  I'm crazy. 

But I have saved a ton of money. :0)

These ones I spent $2 on the paper clips.

 I had all that felt from Christmas and I had the thread so it was an easy thing to make these ones.

 I spent $3 on the pencils for this Valentine.  Too cute.

 This one was $4.50 for the suckers. 

My kids are excited to finish them up this weekend and to work on the boxes for them to take with them.  I like being crafty with my kids. :0)

Kindle Covers

 We just got our taxes back.  They went all to bills this year.  So not fun.  But we wanted to do something for each of our kids with a bit so for our 2 boys, we found Kindles on KSL.com for good deals.  My husband said they needed covers for them and bought them some material for me to make them one. :0)

Book light from the dollar store. ;0)

 I did it a bit different than the one I made myself.  I put felt on the one side to protect the Kindle a bit more. 

 Instead of corners, I made a heavy hold on the bottom and used elastic on the top.

Very impressed with how this turned out.

 You remember how I had to make 3 of mine to get it sort of right.  Well, you can see my first attempt didn't go so well either.  I had to cut some out and it doesn't meet up on the side.  I'll be making this Kindle another one this weekend after a birthday party.

 My husband found this material for my Dad and had to get it for him so I could make him a Kindle holder also.

Glazed Orange Rolls

I think I need to put this website on my side bar.  I found a bunch of really good recipes.  Here is the orange rolls I tried.

The baby loved them, my husband said they were gross and he would just have to eat them all.  I liked them warm.  They were really good.  I cooked mine too long.  I did the 22 minutes but they should have come out at 20.  They were just a little brown.  Not really burnt but I would have liked them lighter.

Here is the link over for this recipe.
