Time for BLING!....

Hey everyone. I wish that I had taken a before picture of this little clock but was so excited to paint it and bling it that I forgot too. It was originally just a plain old brown cheap clock that I had painted pink and then dry brushed with a little white to accent the highlights on it. Well NOW it got a fresh coat of metallic silver and some added bling! I'm in love with it now! Its amazing what a can of spray paint and a few loose rhinestones can do huh?
Have a great day everyone!

Pizza Pops anyone?

 Hey everyone! Looking for a nice little after school snack for the kiddos? I remember how hungry my son used to be when he would get home from school and needed a little something to hold him over until supper time rolled around. Well I've found just the thing for you and they are super fast,easy and CHEAP to make....oh yeah and did I say that they are delicious as well? I didn't really know what to call them because I had seen them being made on tv but couldn't remember which show I was watching at the time but did remember most of the ingredients...if I forgot to add something then I'd never know it because they were so good. So I've named them Pizza Pops because each bite is like a POP of cheesy goodness. Like I said they will be good for snacks, however they were supper tonight for me and my husband. I didn't feel like standing and cooking for any length of time so this was the perfect thing....a side salad along with these is more than enough for anyone I think. So anyway, here is the recipe..hope you enjoy.
*
PIZZA POPS
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
couple of pinches of salt
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon rosemary
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 cups Sergento 6 cheese Italian cheese (8 oz bag)
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 1/2 cups sliced pepperoni cut into small pieces
1 jar pizza sauce

Oh yeah I about forgot the most important part moms.....be sure to set you one aside so you'll have something to snack on as well while your making that precious family of yours supper.
