Just A Pinch

I LOVE this recipe website. I have found so many new recipe ideas and even get to add and store my own recipes so that when I misplace them (as I very frequently find myself doing), I can look them up on Just a Pinch. Here is a recipe I just posted for Pinwheel Peanut Butter Candy.

Kitchen Christmas Tree

Unlike most women I know, I have never been a huge fan of decorating for Christmas. However, I do enjoy crafting and creating so when I saw a small Christmas tree on the internet decorated with silverware, I decided to "get crafty". I purchased the miniature tree at Michael's for 25% off. I found the ornaments (including the mini cookie cutter ornaments and mini cookie shaped ornaments) at Hobby Lobby for 50% off. I am very happy with the way my kitchen tree turned out. Now if only my huge tree was so fun to decorate!!
