Gettin' crafty.......

Have I mentioned I may have a slight addiction to Pinterest? I can confidently use the word "slight" because at the moment, work is crazy busy and there's not much free time to be had which means there's not much time to feed any addiction. That's the only thing saving me, though! So when I do find myself with a few free moments.....you know.....before going to bed at 1am....or delaying getting out of bed at 6:30am......I do love to do some pinning.

I was trying to think of something cute for the girls' Valentine's Day party at pre-school and I came across a pin for festive chocolate covered pretzels and I thought that would be a great Sunday project for tomorrow's party!

So we gathered the troops..........it's not a fun project without grandma!
Got out the sprinkles.........


Waited for the chocolate to melt........


And did a whole lotta dipping and sprinkling!


I must say......I felt quite crafty today. No matter that I managed to ruin two batches of chocolate before I realized that adding too much food coloring was causing my problem! Geesh -- all I wanted was some red chocolate!! But we were pretty pleased with the end results......


and now we're all ready for tomorrow's party!




Happy Valentine's Day!
