I'm feeling crafty


... but am really in no position for craftiness. I'm sitting in a little 2 bedroom condo, surrounded by boxes (only one of which contains craft things - and not the helpful sort!) and I want to craft. I believe tomorrow I am meeting up with Amber to make some pies, so that will help. But oh, how I want to craft!

And so, my attention is turned to the sort of crafting I have always wanted to do and never done... I want to use chocolate transfer sheets on truffles. Yes, I want to! I have Christmas goodies to make this year, so perhaps some finely made truffles with beautiful chocolate transfers will be in the making.

I'm also going to be making these cute snowglobe cookies this year! I've got almost all the decorations for it so far... all that's needed now is the little snowflakes! I've found them, I just have to order them...

Aren't they cute?!

Gumdrop Pops


I was inspired by Martha Stewart and these cuties, so Ellie and I sat down last night and decided to make our own gummy pops. We started with this:

We had a lot of fun putting them together, and decided they'd make cute additions to Christmas gifts for Eliana's friends this year!
