Sweet Treats

As usual I wanted to try and be creative (without realizing the total level of effort until I actually start the project), and this time it was for Easter. After cutting about 20 bunny heads and 20 chicks in addition to a lot of other cutting, this is the mediocre result. Wanted to add some pom pom tails and other things to their pasture, but as a mother of young'un that can be challenging.


And in spite of my level of effort to try and eat healthier, I tried this darn treat of goodness from Kamehameha Bakery. Not sure what it's called but it's like a taro malasada with a little too much glaze (and oil, fat, etc.)





Subsequent to some searching, found this information about the bakery. Look at those hours.

Kamehameha Bakery Inc

Has anyone been there or tried their famous haupia doughnuts? Heard they can make "nasty" cakes too. But that's another topic altogether...

Lifehacker Lover

Does anyone else think this is a wondrous site? It's filled with all types of goodies that help you, well, "geek to live" as they say.

One of today's posts, Learn the finer points of puncuation, contained a link to this article about "10 flagrant grammar mistakes". I know I've been guilty of some of these but this is a big pet peeve that you probably see on a daily basis. So take note the correct ways 'cause you don't want to look stupid, do you? Go ahead and share others that you have encountered.

Another post that we just may have to try out in our cabinets involves 2x4s. Cheaper than purchsing those slide out types of baskets that we were looking to get. The clutter of cans can be overwhelming, especially when you keep buying something that you already have at the back of the cabinet. Makes you almost want to create a spreadsheet using Docs & Spreadsheets to keep track of the cabinet's contents. =)

I'll now get my overload of cuteness to help me through the week...

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I was looking through a magazine and saw an ad for Nestle Toll House Swirled Morsels and thought that would be something I'd like to try, either by making cookies with or by a taste test. Okay maybe not the taste test as the fat AAG doesn't need it. So I decided to share this discovery with MSO and in turn discovered that he did not know what morsels are! He is the ultimate representative of a non-baker but I thought at least he'd know what morsels are and he loves chocolate chip cookies (i.e., Chips Ahoy). What happened to Home Economics at RHS?! Oh so sad...
