Book Pumpkins

I found this interesting idea on The American Homemaker's page and I am intrigued.
They are just folded books. Interesting idea, eh? I really like this idea.

Trick or Treat Crafts

Okay, Halloween isn't usually my thing, but I think these are very cute.

Graphics Fairy offered this print out for free.

Kendra from "Me and My Insanity" came up with this idea for it.

She also came up with this craft, which I think is so cute.


Here are the directions if you want to make it too. Although these aren't really directions, it links to where she got the idea and other ways of doing it. I think it is cute.

Mini Trifle Bowls

For my birthday I wanted to make Creme Brulee. So I bought a set...and was disappointed. So I took it back. We decided to go for a propane torch instead. Because Alton Brown told us to. And then I went to buy some Creme Brulee Bowls. Which I actually couldn't find and apparently am going to have to go to Sugarhouse to purchase. I was a tad frustrated, but while searching Bed, Bath and Beyond I found the coolest thing...

Mini Trifle Bowls
Aren't they cute. I have visions of little girls night out parties or a couple only dinner with them. I also bought mini tart pans.
Think of the possibilities with this. Now all I need to get it those Creme Brulee Ramekins and the mini trifle bowls.

Anyone up for a date night?
