Mother’s Day Candy Boxes

April 30, 2022

 

Two by two boxes decorated with stickers, cut-outs, and filled with candy make lovely Mother’s Day gifts. These are great for shut-ins, neighbors, assisted living residents, and dozens more. You might have your own decorating idea.

I filled mine with peanut butter cups, mints, and Lindt Chocolates.

Below is a light and easy Lemon Cake recipe for a Mother’s Day banquet, potluck, or take-along dish.

1 box lemon cake mix

Instant lemon pudding

Cool whip

Bake cake as directed and mix pudding as suggested.  Spread pudding over top when cooled and add cool whip.

Shave lemon rind over cool whip.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Easter Chicks

April 6, 2022

Fork painting, feathers, and wiggle eyes make a fun Easter project for children. I found this cute chick craft on Pinterest.

I printed a free egg template on cardstock and made a circle in the center so children can follow a pattern. Just dip the underside of a fork into craft paint. Make sure the paint is dry before adding the wiggle eyes, beak, and feathers.

I couldn’t post this without adding a cookie.

Happy Easter!
