Foolish Morsel

I have never been one to go to garage sales, not because I don’t think they’re marvy, they totally are, but I never think to go to ‘em, I usually have both boys with me and I have difficulty puttering around, but, my friend is an uber garage sale-r, and she found these for me!!  I got a box FULL of these candy molds, at least 20 years old, for one single dollar…I just couldn’t photograph all of ‘em….and this waffle cone maker, again, probably twenty years old, NEVER OPENED! One dollah…that’s right…and my neighbor makes ice cream, so guess what we’re collaborating on this summer!!  Yay!!  I’m making some Independence Day cuppies too, will post those soon!

I love vintage stuff, so anything 20 years old (ouch, when I graduated) or older is fantabulous!

This is my favorite mold, do you remember the large lit up ones in peeps’ yards?

Strawberry Shortcake or Hollie Hobby, can’t tell yet…

Crazy solid bunny mold!  There’s a front and a back…

Vintage chick fam!

Victorian looking Santa

See, a dollah!

Ew…got rid of these first thing!  But, they were never opened!  ; )

You can see the whole post on my Gee That’s Swell, but here are the pix!

I took my little men strawberry picking with our friends on Monday, they thoroughly enjoyed it, and did sneak a few to eat!  I told Owen I’d have to weigh him when we checked out!  Here are some of the results, Strawberry Hand Pies!  I made them last year as well, too yum!  I am planning on testing some white chocolate cuppies with a strawberry mousse filling, I’ll be sure to post those too, yummy or not!  Clair, I’m totally on board with the Silpat, you’ll get it back, one day!  ; )

oh the flakiness (and for once, in my case, it’s a good thing)!

four thumbs up!

My friend had her daughter’s last Daisy meeting on Wednesday, but for the humidity, I think these turned out pretty well.  I used the chocolate ganache as a filling for these, and baked them in, of course, my daisy pan…wanted to be sure to use ‘their’ colors (the girls can earn petals for achievements)…

My wonderful friend Jan (from back home, in MI) is always sending me little clips and tidbits of things, so sweet!  The other day I received this card in the mail, and inside was this faboo snap of a ring!  Crazy love it, a wicked little treasure! Thanks mooshka, and I’m sending you some recipes I think you’ll like!  Thanks for thinking of me, doll!  I miss you and our cawfee tawk! : )
