homemade applesauce

Saturday, after running around all day, I came home and tried my hand in homemade applesauce. It was extremely easy and made our apartment smell delicious. 

I used 5 different apples, 8 total

sliced them (I left the peels on, and it makes the applesauce have a little crunch)

throw them in a crock pot

add a 3 inch cinnamon stick

4 tsp of brown sugar

lemon peel

1 tsp lemon juice

cook low for 5 hours. I used my meat masher to mash. stir every hour. 

of course remove the cinnamon sick when it is finished, lemon peel is ok to keep in.

chocolate chip cookies

made chocolate chip cookies saturday. they were healthy, but still delicious.

SPRING IS HERE

 It was a beautiful day here in Iowa yesterday and instead of enjoying the great outdoors, I have been inside all day. Crafting that is. However, I did get to drive with the windows down on my way to Hobby Lobby!

I decided I needed some Easter/Spring decor to get into the season.

I usually make something unhealthy/delicious on the weekends!

I call this Peanut Butter Cereal Treats (clever right)

 I also made another duct tape rack for my boyfriends mom. She brought over a sample of her wall paper for me to match it. I found the perfect colors!
 Hope she likes it.
