Who Woulda Thunk It...

I got an email from Renuzit today and thinking that it might have an attached coupon like they normally do, I get ready to hook up the printer and I open the email. To my surprise there was no coupon. Instead there was a link to a Renuzit site that contained.... CRAFTS!!!!!!! OMG, who woulda thunk it.... Here is the link to the RENUZIT Crafts page... GO HERE

Have fun browsing it, I did.

Caramel Apple Bars

I have been searching high and low for apple recipes, that didn't take a lot of work on my part and that I wouldn't need to BUY a lot of ingredients. Well, I came across this recipe and I actually have all of the ingredients. For more apple recipes check out the website... Best Apples

For times when a little indulgence is deserved, this sweet and buttery, gooey and crunchy treat is just right.

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup plus 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine
2 large eggs, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 Golden Delicious apples, cored and chopped
1 cup caramel candies, each cut in quarters
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Method:

1) Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking pan. In medium-size bowl, combine 1 cup flour and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Transfer mixture to pan and press in an even layer in bottom of pan. Bake 10 minutes.

2) In same mixing bowl, combine eggs, vanilla, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and remaining 1/4 cup flour; stir in apples, caramels, and nuts. Pour over bottom crust. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden. Cool slightly; cut into quarters lengthwise and crosswise to make 16 bars. Cool completely.

After a couple of month's I think I have it...

I think I have come up with the name for my new product line. I didn't get very many people commenting to give me a lot of direction but I thank those of you that did. Those that did comment I will be attempting to contact you with a small gift.

So the name that I am thinking of is.... BooBoo Buddies.

It looks like we have a winner then. I just went and looked at the last posting and the comments listed and it looks like Missie from ALLthangsOLDbutNEW2U is the winner. Missie, I will get one created for you and sent out just as soon as I can.

I need your help...

I am creating a new product and I need your help naming it. The new item will be a children's hot/cold pad. It will be similar to a bean bag animal but will be filled with corn so that it can be microwaved or frozen depending on what is needed.

What I need from you is suggestions for names. If I choose your name for the product name you will be the first to receive one. So send me your ideas and don't forget to leave me a way to get a hold of you.

Thanks in advance,

Jennifer

ETA: I have a funky cat, frog and platypus in the works at this time.

Off and running...

Well I was supposed to have gotten a bunch of new stuff done up for this Expo that my future mother in law is going to be at and she is so graciously allowing me to put the new stuff in her booth. So I am behind due to a day job that I had. I now have 22 back/shoulder pads cut and ready to sew and 11 eye masks cut and ready to sew. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to get one of each pattern sewn and ready to treat. I have to hit the fabric store to get thread for the serger and the sewing machine that will better match the fabric. After further figuring it looks like the back/shoulder pads are going to be $30 and the eye masks still not sure. I will post one of each as I get them done in my shop.
