Hot Wheels Car Carrying Case


 I found a pattern online for a this cute car case.
 I  used jean, felt and other fabric to make the body of it.  Ribbon to tie it.

 If you want to make one, you can find it here.

I think it turned out really cute!  I made one for the little mini dolls my daughter has.  I'll post that one soon.

I hope you all had a great Christmas!  What did you do?

10 oz large marshmallows
6 Cups Rice Krispies
1/2 Cup Raisins

Directions:
In a pan, melt butter and marshmallows.  Remove from heat and add cereal and raisins.  Press into a pan.  When cool, cut into squares.


Something to try...

Baked Cheesy Mashed Potatoes

I've been on a potato kick lately.  I wanted hot mashed potatoes for when we were ready to eat, whenever that was.  So I came up with these.  Cheese please.

Ingredients:
6 Potatoes, peeled, boiled and drained
4 Tbsp Butter
1/2 Cup Whole Milk
1/2 Cup Mozzarella Cheese (plus a little extra for the top)
1/2 Cup Cheddar Cheese
1 Tsp. Garlic seasoning
1 Tsp. Salt and Pepper
1 Green onion sliced and diced

Directions:
Mash potatoes and add 3 Tbsp butter, and all other ingredients, mix up well.  Put into an 8 x 8 greased pan.  Add the last tbsp of butter and a sprinkle a little more cheese.  I did some mozzarella.  Cover with foil and bake at 375 F for 15 minutes. 

 I hope you like 'em!  Obviously you can add more cheese as you like.

My nephew is turning 1 soon and I wanted to make him something cute.  I came across this monster pillow that can be used later for the tooth fairy.  I like that you can use so many different colors for these pillows.  

You can find the tutorial here.

 I hope your having a great December!

Lion Applique Blanket

My sister- in -law made this lion with her cricket.  Really cool machines. 
I finally decided to stop waiting and just put it on a blanket.  It'll hang around longer than a shirt.  Iron, iron, sew, sew and We's done.  She immediately ran off with it and this was the only pic i could get.
Thanks Aunt Rene!

Reclaimed Doug Fir End table

 I've been sick for over two weeks now, which hopefully explains my lack of recipes posted of recent.  My husband made me an end table during my first week.  It is exactly what I wanted.

 I had seen pictures of people bringing in tree stumps, bark and all.  Not my taste. 

 He cut it and hand planed it.  Some oil and wax later, and she's done.  It's perfect. 

 Ideas for dinner tonight?
