That means Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Our family likes to use this time to think about all that we are thankful for. This year we decided to make cards for our close family and friends. With all the pretty colored fall leaves and a few nice flowers left in the garden, we tried out the ALEX My Flower Press so we could use them to decorate our cards.

October 26, 2011 at 09:00 | Posted in Kid Concoctions, Play@Home Mom, Recipes, Reviews | Leave a commentLori and I tried a recipe from the ALEX Kid Concoctions book and we wanted to share!
Just in time for Halloween, here is how to make Swamp and Snake Dessert:
You will need:
1 cup of pre-made vanilla pudding (we made a larger quantity and served ours as dessert for the whole family)
3-4 drops of green food coloring
Gummy snakes or worms
Crushed vanilla wafers
Instructions:
1. Mix the pudding and food coloring in a bowl until well blended.
2. Spoon the pudding into a dessert dish.
3. Sprinkle the top of the pudding with the crushed vanilla wafers.
4. Add gummy snakes or worms and serve.
Lori had fun stirring, scooping and, of course, tasting her wormy dessert! EWWW!
