Baby Kinley's Dedication

Sunday was Kinley's baby dedication at Kindi & Danny's church. Kindi had a little get together afterwards and asked me to make some cupcakes. She stuck with the pink/brown/polka dot theme. The cookie suckers were supposed to be cupcake toppers, but when I couldn't get my brown royal icing to look brown instead of an icky tan color, I had to scrap that idea. They were meant to be pink with brown polka dots, but we had to go with Plan B. So, they got sprinkled instead. Everything turned out real cute and was super yummy!

Happy 4th of July!!!

I made these little cards with the kiddos to help celebrate the fourth. On the back they simply say Happy 4th of July! Love, Our Little Firecrackers. I thought they turned out pretty cute! I think when their hands get a little bigger they may look more like flags, like I had intended!!!

Holy Marshmallows, Batman!

We went to meijer today after church and found these enormous marshmallows! I know, the picture doesn't do them justice, but seriously, they are like three marshmallows in one! They are seriously huge and would make one nice, gooey, sticky, yummy s'more mess! Brock is just itching to try them out! Oh- and as a side note, this week Cupcake Pebbles are on sale at meijer! Go make ya some Cupcake Pebble Rice Krispy Treats!!!!

Cupcake Pebbles Cupcakes

So, how do you make Cupcake Pebbles Rice Krispy Treats even yummier??? Why, buttercream frosting and sprinkles of course!

Who LOVES Alfredo???

OK, so seriously, who enjoys eating alfredo sauce when you know you are devouring way too many calories for one sitting??? Not me. When I came across this recipe, I thought, no way could anything with the name "guiltless" in it even taste remotely good, especially when it comes to alfredo. Boy, was I wrong! This stuff was so stinkin' yummy!!! And might I add super easy to make. This will probably be a once a weeker at the Schlittler house. TJ grilled us up some chicken breast, I threw some fettuchini noodles in a pot, followed Our Best Bites alfredo recipe, and BAM! Best meal ever. Go check this recipe out now and let me know what you think!

Mini Lemon Meringue Cupcakes

So, for our Ladies' Day at church last month I decided to try out a new recipe I found online for mini lemon meringue cupcakes. They just looked so cute and like a little mouthful of joy. Well, there wasn't much joy in making them, to be quite honest. Mixing up the batter was fine, but then you were to insert a filling inside the cupcake and that's when my battle began. I had one gigantic mess in my kitchen and what I thought was going to be an easy recipe, turned into an all night affair with me mopping my floor at midnight from all the stickiness. I did get lots of compliments on them, so I guess they weren't too bad, but will most likely not be making them again anytime soon.
