RICE KRISPIE TURKEY POPS!

RICE KRISPIE TURKEY POPS!

Hello! 

Welcome to the first post of 

Sophia and Mom's new blog segments. 

In this series we will feature the following fun things

written and created by Mom and Sophia.

*Fun Edible Crafts

*Inspirational Quotes and Stories

*Fun Memories

Tonight we made Rice Krispie Turkey Pops!

The idea was taken from the blog Hungry Happenings

We LOVE that blog for fun edible craft ideas. 

We modified this by using Marshmallows cut in half for the eyes and molding Starbursts for the beak and gobble. 

A black edible food writer was used for his eye!

A helpful hint in molding the beak and gobble is to microwave the Starburst for about 5 seconds to soften the candy. EASY!

For the step by step instructions please

go to Hungry Happenings and tell her we sent you!

Hope you try these out! They taste GREAT! 

Making Sweet Memories,

Sophia & Mom

Cookie Dough Spring Pretzel Bites

I continue to be "addicted" with a new 

blog I found, Sally's Baking Addiction

I really like her easy to follow instructions

and wide range of fun treats. 

I have never made a treat using safe

cookie dough and have wanted too for some time. 

Knowing Sophia Rose LOVES cookie dough

as all the motivation I needed to put these together.

They were VERY easy and really oh so yummy. 

Sophia was able to help with all the steps which

really made this a great project. 

I liked the fact it was no-bake!

They are very rich but leave you with that,

"I want just one more....." feeling! HA.

I added some pretty sprinkles in honor of 

Spring trying to break through. 

Have a great week!

Sweet Pea Baby Shower Cupcakes

Sweet Pea Baby Shower Cupcakes

I haven't posted for a long time and thought these were worth sharing. I honestly can't recall if I ever posted these last year when I made them but even if I did, they are worth the repeat - so cute! 

These were so much fun to make!

Have a great Friday!

Sports Themed Cupcakes

Sports Themed Cupcakes

I pulled these out of the archives 

recently and since it has been like two years

from FOREVER since I shared something I

thought these would be fun to put out there. 

I really had a great time making these

for a little boy's birthday - obviously he is a sports fan!!

I made them using fondant and

various paper printables. 

Shoot some hoops!

Batter up! 

I used my edible printer to make the hockey image. 

He could go all the way!!!!!!!!

Have a great day.

Lilly Oncology - Beautiful Pictures, Beautiful Words

I saw this most beautiful picture created by a cancer patient in the Lilly Oncology - Oncology on Canvas book. 

This book was given to my Mother-in-Law who was recently diagnosed with uterine cancer. The book is something amazing. 

This picture and statement by the artist, grabbed my heart.   

Tilted: No Words

Written by the artist: 

"I was 21 when cancer disrupted by life. I was in college, in love and unstoppable. But in the months that followed my diagnosis and treatment, I lost my hair, my invincibility and the boy I thought I would marry. I held on to the hope that I would pick up the pieces of myself when it was all over. But I couldn't. I kept my cancer a secret. Ultimately, I realized I needed to tell my story and wrote it all down, 150 pages later, I found I had finally untangled myself from cancer's grip. I said goodbye; goodbye past, goodbye pain, goodbye cancer. I've won and that means that you lose. I am finally free!"

I had to share it here because I think I could have wrote

the exact same words when I was diagnosed.  

It just reached off the page and touched my soul.  

I want to save this forever. 

Sometimes other people say it best. 

I am still looking to untangle myself, and now my 

sweet Mother-in-Law.....and I won't give up

until we are all finally free. 

Lilly Oncology - Oncology on Canvas is a national art competition and exhibition honoring the journey of those affected by cancer both as patient, survivor, family or health care provider. 

Quite Beautiful.
