I was very excited to try all the fun flavors they have and … [Read more...]

Well this week I got to try out the Wolf Claw Meat forks. I decided to make pulled pork sandwiches. When I first took the meat forks out of the package I was a little nervous because they are super … [Read more...]

Time to Make the Gingerbread House! Psych!
Every year at Christmas, we make a gingerbread house. This year, when I bought our kit, I was rushing. 2 weeks later, when I pulled it from the cabinet for the kids to work on it, I figured out it wasn't gingerbread! It was chocolate! At first, I was disappointed, but really, it was SO much better! Sometimes the fact that I'm an airhead works out to my advantage!So in this kit, it gives you the milk chocolate to melt and then you pour it into the molds to make the sides and roof. Then you … [Read more...]
