Elf Food Day 3 of 12 Days of Christmas

 Well today is day 3 of my 12 Days of Christmas, treats and baking, and today I just had to share a easy, yet super yummy mix.  Elf Food, isn't that the cutest name ever!   I am going to be making tins of it and sending it to my out of town families with the rest of the candy I have been making.   These would also look really cute packaged up for a bake sale, or treats for school! 

All you need to make this yummy mix is:
Cheerios
White Chocolate Pretzels
Marshmallows
Yogurt Covered Raisins
White Chocolate Chips
York Peppermint Patties M'M's  ( I used these to add a little color ) 
Mix all together, and  you have Elf Food!

Rolo Pecan Pretzle Treats! Day 2 of 12 Days of Christmas

Well I am super excited that I finished Day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas!  I have two candies made now for Christmas Eve, and I have decided to send candy to my family back home, so this is working out perfectly!!    

This  Recipe was found in the Sandra Lee Semi Homemade Nov-Dec 2010 issue.

Ingredients: 

  Rolo Candy

Pretzels

White Melting Chocolate

Pecan Halves

The directions in the Sandra Lee Semi Home-made said to use the pre-bought pretzels, but I had white melting chocolate on hand so I used that and just dipped my own pretzels.  Once they were dry,  I Preheated the oven to 300* and set one rolo on top of each pretzel.    Put in oven for 3 minutes.

Once you take the pretzels out of the oven quickly push one pecan half down into it.  They harden pretty fast I realized.       When you are down with that,  then just drizzle white chocolate over the top, and chill!   So easy and soooooooo good! 

Please come back tomorrow for another tasty Holiday Treat you can make and share with your family!!!!

 Well Christmas is fast approaching, and this year I have added again to my collection of items, Advent Cakes and Countdown to Christmas cakes!!!!  I love these,  I am actually making up 3 of them for my nieces and nephews.  One of my sisters has 8 kids, so I am trying to figure out how to do this one lol!   I am doing a Elmo's Christmas for my one niece, and a snowman one for my one nephew.   We all know how kids are when presents are starting to pile up under the tree, and they just want to open up "JUST ONE" pleaseeee!!!  Well hopefully this will cure them of that, but I can't guarantee it of course! :)  I will also be adding this week,  12 days to Christmas Cakes.  

Avery's Monkey Buziness Party!

This was a Super Special party !!!  My bestest little buddy was turning 4!  And it was Party "JEN"erations very first party we did locally!  We loved how it turned out, Avery and her mom were super happy.  It was held at Monkey Bizness which was a great location, and the employees were just fantastic to work with!

So Avery is into Monkeys lately, so of course we had to go with a Monkey theme, we decided on Pink, Brown, and a touch of green.   What a fun color combination!

We all were expecting banquet tables when we arrived, and much to our surprise they were not lol!   But we pulled it off with colorful napkins and dressed each table up super cute! 

The candy bags for the Candy Buffet were just simple lunch sacks, we added ribbon ties and a sticker.  My Fabulous assistant ( and daughter)  personalized all of the bags with the children's names.   They turned out super cute and the kids "LOVED" finding their own special bag.



 

The main character of this party was this adorable pink sock monkey by TerraceHill!

We are thrilled that you stopped by and checked out our Monkey Party.  I was a super fun theme, Avery had a blast, and that was our main objective!  We learned alot on what we need to do next time,  that we can change plans on a moments notice.  And that this is definitely the career I want to pursue!  Thank you so much, and please join us tomorrow for a fun new post!
