So Doggone Cute!

My sweet crafty hubby made our Chloe dog her very own dog bed!

It's fall Y'all

I have been busy decorating for fall the past couple of days. I also made a pillow that I have been wanting for some time. There is a store in the mall I work at called Lucca Interiors and it had the pillow I wanted so badly....for $100 it could be mine. Forgive me if you have ever spend $100 on a pillow but you are crazy!!!! So I took myself down to the Hobby Lobby and made my own for about $15. Here is the pic of one of the pillows from Outblush. It is only $70

now here are some pics of my pillow and house.

Vanilla Coffee Cream

Man, you can make just about anything with pinterest. I found this awesome recipe from Mrs. happy Homemaker. It is made out of sweetened condensed milk. Funny story about sweetened condensed milk...my mom was sweet enough to stay with me while I was going through a painful miscarriage. We decided to get a snowcone and a can of sweetened condensed milk..between the two of us we ate the entire can of sweetened condensed milk. I can only imagine the calories we consumed that day. French Vanilla Coffee Creamer Ingredients: •14oz sweetened condensed milk •14oz milk (whole, lowfat, or skim - doesn't matter) •2 teaspoons vanilla extract OR Vanilla Coffee Syrup for a stronger flavor •a mason jar (quart is perfect) Instructions: Pour all of the ingredients into your mason jar. Screw the lid on tightly, and shake vigorously for a few minutes until well combined. To Make it creamier, substitute the milk for heavy cream

chocolate syrup

I made my own chocolate syrup and let me tell you it is GOOD! So easy and so yummy. I got it off pinterest and even got to use my cool new Marshalls find. EnJOY!

The one I liked the best was from Amy Dacyczyn’s The Complete Tightwad Gazette. ½ cup cocoa powder 1 cup water 2 cups sugar ⅛ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon vanilla Mix the cocoa powder and the water in a saucepan. Heat and stir to dissolve the cocoa. Add the sugar, and stir to dissolve. Boil for 3 minutes over medium heat. Be careful not to let it get too hot and boil over! Add the salt and the vanilla. Let cool. Pour into a clean glass jar, and store in the refrigerator. Keeps for several months, but trust me it will be gone before then. Yields two cups. The result is very rich, so I only use a teaspoon for a glass of chocolate milk.
