Simple pleasures...

I must admit, I get pleasure out of the simple things. Last week Preston was the leader at Preschool. They talked about corn and owls. The teacher asked us to have a snack that coordinates with what they are talking about. I was so excited!! OK, first of all, I love Halloween. I have 4 Halloween cook books!! (I can't get enough of the fun and scary treats you can make.) I made candy corn popcorn balls, and these owl treats for his class. Talk about fun! When the teacher saw the owls, she flipped. She said she had to take a picture. If only I was creative enough to come up with them myself! All they are, are crescent rolls, with cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on top, goldfish pretzels, and chocolate stars. I couldn't find pretzel crackers anywhere, luckily my sister was visiting and said she had some. I picked them out of her bag of crackers. Then I couldn't find the chocolate stars. I had to make them. It wasn't hard, though. I just wish I would have thought about melting the chocolate in the first place, instead of running all over creation to find them. Oh well!
