Baked Candy Roundup

I love spending time in the kitchen baking.  I could do it all day long if I was able too!  This is the perfect season for baking lots of little treats to giveaway (and snack on a few too).  Here are some of my favorite treats to bake:



Peppermint Meringues.


Chocolate Peppermint Bark.


Homemade Taffy.


Homemade Peppermint Patty.

Storage Container DIY

I've had these little clear storage containers for my main baking ingredients forever.  (Well, not quite forever, but at least 6 years.)  I decided it was either time to replace them entirely or try to spruce them up.  I washed them all down so they were sparkly clean and then got to work cutting some adhesive backed vinyl with my Cricut.  Here's the finished product:





Now every time I open my cupboards I smile just a little.  If you don't have a Cricut, use some stickers or rub-ons to add a little something special to your boring storage containers.  I promise, you'll like it!  (You'll have to forgive the low amount of sugar...I was busy making these Chocolate Surprise Cookies.)



Happy Weekend everyone!
