Malia's playroom sign

Me and my daughter were out and past by a thrift store WooHoo! I made a quick U-turn and went to look around. I came across this Nascar framed picture and thought I have seen this on Pinterest were people transform frames into chalkboards, my imagination got the best of me. I purchased the frame, of course I always have spray paint and chalkboard paint on hand. I went straight home and got to work on this adorable idea for my daughters playroom. Here is the finished masterpiece, it's so easy to make and you can do it in so many colors. My next project is to make a huge wall size one her and her friends can doodle on. Enjoy!

Feeding the Birds

I had an idea today to do with my daughter, she loves animal so much. We got some toilet paper rolls together and spread smooth P-nut butter all over them then we rolled them in bird seed. We had a blast making these together, she is so fun and we enjoy trying out so many new crafts. We put them on the tree branches outside and let the birds get to work, We will do this every week to feed all the pretty birds that end up in our back yard. Seems like our birds are having a hard time finding food these days so its up to us to make sure they can get a quick snack in our backyard. Enjoy!

Love Jen

Supplies Needed

-Toilet paper roll
-Smooth P-nut butter
-Bird seed
-spatula or spoon

Directions

Easy Crock pot Breakfast

Everybody knows I love my crock pot and I can get pretty creative with it. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day I'm obsessed so I put together a fast breakfast so we can wake up eat and go. We love anything with eggs so this was a must. Our home smelled so good thru the night it made us want to eat it so bad, but it would not be ready for 6 more hours. (DARN!) I got together some eggs, frozen hash browns, cheese, sausage, onions and bell pepper, garlic and milk then got to work on this creation. I recommend this for any size family and it will become a favorite amongst your entire family... So very easy and it will last a couple days depending on the size of your family : ) Enjoy!

Pizza Monkey Bread

Hi friends I'm sorry I have been gone for a couple weeks, I have been busy filling all these cupcake/cake orders for the Holiday season. I'm back and I have alot of catching up to do, I finally got a small break from baking, for now : )

I want to share this Delicious recipe with you, called Pizza Monkey Bread. I was going thru my fridge and noticed I had Grand biscuit, cheese, pepperoni and and marinara for dipping. I wanted to make something fun and kid friendly for my daughter to eat for lunch. It all came together so easily and it literally took me 10 min to prepare, I had a blast making these and I had even more fun eating them with my hubby and daughter. Perfect finger food for any occasion, have fun making these yummy little creations. Enjoy!

Love, Jen

Pizza Monkey Bread Recipe

-Grand biscuit 3 packages
-Pack of pepperoni
-Mozzarella cheese cubed
-Marinara for dipping

Directions

Set oven to 350 Degrees
Take each biscuit, add pepperoni and cheese,then roll up into a ball and put it in bunt cake pan, or any pan you have and pile on top of each other. I was using my bunt pan for something else so I just used a regular square glass baking dish. Place in oven for 13 minutes depending on your oven. When done the dough will no longer be sticky and will pull apart easily.
