Today's Guest: Craftomaniac

 HELLO THERE- Jen here from CraftOManiac
 I am so happy to be joining in Karen's Monster Craft Bash- TO FUN. 

so I wanted to make a Halloween treat for my kiddos. So I headed to the nearest Walmart and got some supplies.

I am titling this treat {MONSTER MIX MADNESS}


Here are most of the supplies. I got a sweet package from my mil with some fun Bakers Twine in it that I so love.  So I tied the bakers twine around the bags and added $ 1.00 store monster eye ball suckers. I also picked out the Halloween colors from the mini m&ms
First melt your candy melts. Then pop your popcorn, lay the popped popcorn out on your cookie sheet. Drizzle the melted chocolate over it. Mix with hands or spoon. (hands work better) Then sprinkle with candy sprinkles, candy corn, and mini m&ms. I eye balled my servings. You can use as much or as little as you would like. Last fill up your bags, and let chill in the fridge for about 15 min.
 ITS PRETTY DARN SWEET, AND PRETTY DARN TASTY.... BUT MOST OF ALL ITS "MONSTER MIX MADNESS"... and if you feed your kids to much.... it will be just that....... -MONSTER MADNESS- winks.
P.S. they weren't at all excited... not one tiny bit.

That looks soooo yummy!  Thanks so much for joining us Jen!!  She is so sweet and has a fantastic blog with a bazillion cute crafts, tutorials, recipes, etc.  You will love Craftomaniac!

White Chocolate Marshmellow Pops

  I had some white chocolate leftover from like last Christmas or maybe even the Christmas before (it still tastes fine!).  I wanted to use it up.  I knew I had some big marshmellows, some leftover sucker sticks from making candy previously, and I had sprinkles!  Just what I need to make these yummy Valentine marshmellow treats.  Here are my not so organized directions:


First we melted that yummy White chocolate in the microwave.  Make sure you nuke it in 30 second intervals, then stir, or it will burn.  Believe ME, nothing is worse than burnt Chocolate...yuk!

You need the large Marshmellows, lollipop sticks (or toothpicks), and Valentine sprinkles! 
The sprinkles go EVERYWHERE!  I kept sweeping them up with my hand and pouring them on a marshmellow dipped in the chocolate (can't stand to waste it!).  After you've dipped one, let it dry on a piece of wax paper.  doesn't even stick, yay!
Aren't they perdy?
There she is enjoying her yummy treat!
I luurve all the pretty colors:)
That bugger was gone in about 10 seconds!

These were soooo easy.  It's quick and easy, and you have immediate satisfaction:)  They are really yummy.  Word of advice:  If you eat more than about 4 at a time, your tummy won't feel so good:)
