Round Two Recipe

I had three fourths of a ball of yarn left over from the blanket that I made for my mom, so I turned it into this:

It’s a cowl!  Please excuse the end of the day lack of make up and enthusiasm…  But cowls are one of my favorite things to crochet because they are so fast, easy, and comfy.  They keep my neck cozy, and it’s a great way to finish off a ball of yarn.  I hate when I have an awkward amount of yarn leftover from a project.  Problem solved.

I got this simple recipe from a pattern on the Lion Brand yarn website.  Check it out, there are a lot of free patterns if you register.  All it takes is a user name and a password.

PS- There wasn’t a lot of color on the red carpet this year at the Grammy’s.  It was all metallic, white, and black dresses.  I didn’t hate it.  Who wore this look best?  The whole pale/gold embellished dress seemed to be in this year at the Grammy’s.

V-Day Treat

Every once in a while I need a treat.  A Rice Krispie treat that is.  They’re so unique and light and sweet.  A perfect vacation from normal cookies.  For Valentine’s day I decided to make them in muffin tins so they were perfectly sized, and festive with Valentine’s day muffin cups.  I also threw in some pink sprinkles right before I portioned them out (not too early so the sprinkles didn’t bleed).

It’s the typical recipe:

Ingredients

  • 1/2 stick of butter
  • 1 bag of marshmallows
  • 6 cups of Rice Krispies
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Method

  1. Heat up a pot on the stove, and melt the butter.
  2. Add in the marshmallows and the vanilla and stir until all of the marshmallows are melted. (sometimes I’ll add a few spoonfuls of peanut butter)
  3. Turn heat to low and add the Rice Krispies a couple cups at a time.  And add sprinkles if desired.
  4. Stir until well mixed and portion into muffin cups or a brownie pan.  Allow to cool completely before removing from cups or pan.

In my world it’s finals week, so here’s what my valentines look like this year:

Happy Valentine’s Day!
