How to Make Marshmallow Fondant
This time I decided to make it with those mini fruit flavored marshmallows. I had to sort them by colour first. I figured they would add a little bit of flavor to the fondant so I wouldn't have to add much flavoring oil.

Valentine's Day Monster Cookies
We all have those days - the ones where nothing seems to go right and each frustration is followed by another. The days that drag on forever with no end in sight. It is equally frustrating when these inevitable days happen to a loved one, leaving me helpless to offer better advice than, “Life sucks sometimes.

This might be my favorite craft so far, and I got the idea after seeing one too many beautifully patterned pots that were just out of my price range!

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles
I’ve never liked chocolate chip cookies. Go ahead and throw tomatoes at me if you’d like, but I don’t like ’em. They’re just a plain old cookie, after all, with a few studs of chocolate chips in them. They’re nothing special to me, unless you get some cookie dough-action before it meets its fate in the oven.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffles
I think it is safe to say that most of us have eaten our fair share of raw cookie dough. When I was a kid, my mother would purchase cookie dough balls from our school Market Day program. I think I ate more dough balls than freshly baked cookies:) However, with the safety issues of raw egg consumption, recipes have been created for us to have our raw cookie dough and eat it too. The only way to make it better is to cover it in chocolate--yum! Many recipes for cookie dough truffles call for sweetened condensed milk. I don't use that in my actual cookie dough, so I use David Lebovitz's recipe for cookie dough.

You might notice a lot of doilies in my recent diy projects.
