Lentil Salad & Edible Flower Garnish
Add the lentils to a cooking pot and pour in the water. Do not add any salt. Bring to a boil and let it simmer for about 25 minutes. It is okay if the lentils are slightly overcooked. Transfer everything into a bowl and mash it a bit with a fork.

Are you looking for Easter dishes that are easy and fun to make? If yes, then these “newly hatched chicks” made from hard-boiled eggs are perfect for you (along with chicken mommy, of course). You can offer them as a snack or use them to garnish a salad. Or how about an Easter picnic? Simply pack them in the egg carton you bought them in. Safe transportation and a cute way to serve.
Chicken Egg Family
With a bucket full of fresh cherries and a package of premade pie crust in the fridge, my kids and I had plans to make a batch of Homemade Cherry Poptarts. But, my clever 7-year-old, Alyssa, had an even better idea, “How ’bout we make little poptarts and put them on a stick like Cinderella?” ‘Cinderella’ here isn’t the fairy tale princess, it’s my Alyssa’s favorite blogger (and one of mine)–the delightsome Angie Dudley of Bakerella–creator of the original cupcake pop, and author of the new book Cake Pops . Bakerella’s original idea for a cupcake-on-a-stick was an overnight sensation, landing her a guest spot on the Martha Stewart Show, and a mulitude of other incredible opportunities to collaborate with top-notch companies. It’s no wonder. Bakerella has a remarkable ability to create adorable ideas using everyday items: mini M&M’s, Necco Wafers, colored sprinkles.
Poptarts-on-a-Stick and Bakerella's New Book | Family Kitchen
I was in Chicago last weekend for the Home and Housewares Show . It was incredible and so fun to come back to the city. I’ve only been one other time and it was very cooold. But thankfully this weekend was filled with unusually warmer weather. I enjoy taking pics with my phone – it makes snapping quick photos much easier than pulling out my main camera sometimes and you can do so much with them using photo apps. There’s a few iphone photos mixed in this post if you’re wondering why they look a little different.

saucy's sprinkles (bloggedy blog blog): sushi cupcakes
I have been dying to make sushi cupcakes forever . My Japanese sister Yoko spent last week with us... we took her to Elton John and we stuffed a moose with her at Build a Bear Workshop. Imagine coming all the way from Tokyo to Saskatoon and seeing Elton John! Of all places.
