Circle Painting

I needed something on the wall in our master bedroom so I went to Michael's and picked up a couple canvasses.  This is what I came up with.  It is super easy and will take about 15 minutes with drying time.


Our bedroom is brown and blue so that's what I went with.
Start by radomly painting the brown circles.
Let that dry.
Then paint the blue circles inside the brown ones.

Let dry, hang on wall and you are finished!

Thanks for stopping by!

Super Cute Tag Lovey

My husband's cousin is having a baby so I created this cute tag lovey for her.  They know that it is going to be a boy but I thought it would be fun to do something other than blue, and I just loved these colors all together.

Most important, she loved it!  Can't wait to meet little Eli.

Baked Cinnamon Breakfast Bites



I found these on Pinterest via Oh My! Sugar High and had to give them a try since we all love donut holes. 
They are so good and very easy to make.
The kids loved rolling them in the cinnamon and sugar.

1 1/3 cups flour
1 cup crisp rice cereal, crushed
2 tablespoons plus 1/2 cup sugar, divided
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter-flavored shortening
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup butter, melted

In a large bowl mix the flour, cereal, 2 tablespoons sugar, baking powder and salt.
Cut in shortening until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk just until moistened.
Shape into 1-inch balls.

In a small bowl combine the cinnamon and remaining sugar.
Dip balls in melted butter and then roll into the cinnamon and sugar.

Bake in single layer on cookie sheet at 425 F for 15-18 minutes.

Enjoy!

Chicken and Cheese Lasagna Roll-Ups



Found this recipe on Pinterest and had to give it a try.  Instead of the feta and parmesan cheese in the original recipe I just used mozzarella since that is what I had in the house, but I think it still turned out good.  Next time I'll try it with some spinach and maybe some other veggies.

3 cups cooked chopped chicken  
1 cup Ricotta cheese
1/2 cup mozzarella (or about that, I didn't measure it)
1/4 cup milk
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
10 lasagna noodles, cooked and drained (original calls for 8 but I had 10 left so used them all)
2 cups Spaghetti sauce

*Put about 1 cup of sauce in bottom of 13x9 inch baking dish
*Combine chicken, cheeses, milk and pepper in bowl
*Put about 2 spoonfuls of mixture onto each noodle
*Roll noodles long way
*Place rolled lasagna noodles into dish on top of sauce
*Top with remaining spaghetti sauce
*Sprinkle some cheese on top if you would like
*Cover
*Bake at 375 degrees F for about 30 minutes
                

Enjoy!
