Easter Peeps and other stories

I saw this post on SCS and decided to make the Easter Peep jars for my DD's girl scout troop leaders and teachers - that's 6 in total...... when/if you make them I suggest you do it only for your most favorite people in the world - there is a definite learning curve to making them (at least for me) - though by the last one I was a pro!

They turned out pretty cute though and we did try out the recipe first and it is yummy - though ours didn't turn in to the bars they were supposed to but it makes a great ice cream topping :o)

Made an Easter card using my new Cuttlebug - yes I am afraid I joined the craze even though I have never been one for the die-cut machines. I liked the Cuttlebug for the embossing folders - and I LOVE the embossing folders and how easy they are to use.

My younger DD lost a tooth yesterday - though "lost" really doesn't cover it in the slightest. She spent approximately 3 hours yesterday morning wiggling and jiggling and pulling on it in front of the mirror and using up about a whole roll of TP to dab up the blood until there was finally success.

Now she's working on that other front one which is barely hanging on there and she likes to close her mouth with it sticking out - GROSS!!! I am sure she will be a hit with it at school tomorrow. Meanwhile we have to cut up all her food (including tonight's hamburger) in little bite sized pieces because she can't bite anything anymore. Ahh the joys of motherhood :o)
