Let It Snow!

It finally snowed in Denver this week, as opposed to staying in the mountains! Nothing really accumulated until last night. When I went to wake Fro up this morning I excitedly told her that it had snowed while we were sleeping, cuz this girl loves snow. Instead of jumping out of bed like she has in the past she rolled over and told me "Good, that means school's cancelled". I truly hated to burst her bubble but Colorado is a bit more advanced and a 1/4" of snow does not shut anything down.

Holidays

One of the best thing about holidays is the fun baking one gets to do. Over the past few years I have fallen very far behind in my holiday baking, o.k. it's been non-existent, though I still plead at least one more years vacation from Halloween baking after my dozen or so Twinkie owls I made fro Fro's pre-school a few years ago. :) Anyway, I was stalking a few web sites just before St. Patricks Day and found the cutest cookies to make. I normally stick with the shamrock sugar cookies, but when I found Leprechaun Hats I just knew I had to try them, and boy did they turn out cute. Fro had a great time helping me too, it was perfect for her. Her job was to place the marshmallows on the cookies and then she had her own bowl of frosting to cover the cookies with, she had a blast.

The finished product.

And for anyone wondering what the Twinkie Owls were see below!

I do tend to get a little carried away with the details of some projects, but they are fun! :)
