You Can Do It!

Well, here are the directions on how to make edible fruit arrangements! They are not my own instructions, but these things are really hard to find on the web. They are copyrighted so you can link on them at:

We're getting closer to Easter and I am ready. That only means that we're going out to dinner that day, and I've already bought all the Easter candy. Including Edible Easter Basket Grass. I got it at Walmart of all places. They have a section of candy and toys that are color coordinated. All blue stuff, all pink stuff, etc. I haven't opened it yet, so I don't know what it tastes like, but it looks kind of wafery. Like those round candies with the candy beads in them. Flying saucers!

I'll find out soon if that grass is wafery or like sour candy. My kids are young adults now so they have no problem
sharing.
There is a candy site that sells these, although they are out of stock at the moment.

There are plenty of nostalgic candies here from the 50's to the 80's.

Rainy Days and Mondays

It's raining today and I thought that this blog might organize my thoughts...My mind isn't doing such a good job of it these days.
My friend Linda asked me to find some cookie bakers for her. I found two cute shops on Etsy! The one on the left is from AmyBakes. These cookies are all about 3" and she'll make four of each for only $12. I can't believe it! I just have to see if she can put them on sticks.

I saw another shop too and she says she can put her cookies on sticks. The shop is called BrokenRoadFarm. They have butter- cream frosting and and are $7.99 for six ( at least that is the pre-stick price. I wouldn't bake for those prices. I was also doing some research for Linda about making those cool fruit arrangements that are so expensive. I came across one site that has a really really expensive kit and all you really need is a cookie cutter and some bamboo skewers. There was another place that gave directions on how to "do it yourself". If it works, I will post it for all to see. I have to take some pictures now so I have some actual content for this blog. See everyone later!
